    Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?

    Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
     
  3. Laptop apps (Settings, Etc) say not connected to network or internet but browser connects to home network and internet

    Thanks for the response, Greg.

    I re-registered apps per your suggestion.

    Didn't fix problem.

    The problem seems related to built-in system apps --I.E Settings, Network and Internet Settings, Windows Updates, List of available wifi networks, etc.

    None of those apps recognize my connection to LAN network and internet connection.

    However, the list of available wifi networks does show I'm connected to my home wifi connection, but says no internet connection.

    I can't perform any Settings functions or anything which requires internet connection because the built-in app thinks it's not connected to internet.

    But, my Firefox browser has full internet and LAN connection and abilities.

    I appreciate any thing you can recommend.

    Also note I keep getting a "notification" that my Microsoft account needs attention. It directs me to Shared Experiences" to fix the problem. I try to fix from there but it fails due to "No internet connection"

    I have checked my Microsoft account via browser access and finf no highlighted problem in my account.

    Regards,

    Richard
