    Sorted my problem that had this error


    Quick update:

    Installed Windows 10 again, problem recurred.
    This time, two additional steps for a fix:
    1. Turned Windows Firewall off -- theory: might conflict with AVG antivirus. This one seems a stretch, but I record it for completeness.
    2. Went to adapter properties and made sure every possible installable protocol was installed. You can get the list by clicking on any protocol to highlight it, selecting install, selecting protocol, then installing every protocol you see there.

    Having done these things, I restarted, with no luck.

    THEN I ran efta's script again, and connectivity came back, for the first time in my attempt to upgrade to Windows 10.

    FWIW, YMMV -- and thanks again to efta's initial suggestion as well as to all the informed and helpful discussion in this thread.

    Where had all my apps gone?


    The November update has given me the ability to not only select where to save new apps, but even more important to me is being able to move (some) apps from the the (C) drive to the (D) drive, an SD Memory Card.

    I went a bit mad and moved as many apps as I could. Now, what mystified me was that I could not find them! They had not appeared anywhere in (D). Checking back in Apps and Features they are still shown as being located in (D) where they should be.

    Fortunately, they are still around. When I click on their tile or in the all apps list the app launches OK. What a relief.

    Eventually I did find them in (D), in an innocuious folder named WpSystem. There are sub-folders, including AppData and at last Packages. In Packages are all the transferred apps

    So that is one mystery involving the new Apps and Features solved. There are others, for example what will happen when I click Modify?
