Windows 10: Why my Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller is disabled in windows 10 ??

Hello,

In my Device Manager I see under Network Adapters that Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller is disabled.
I never disabled it. So how & why it's disabled ?? The other adapter is active which I guess
allows me to surf the web. It's the Qualcomm Wireless Adapter. But recently I get Blue screens
of an error with the Netio.sys driver and so I began checking under Device Manager and found the above.
I have Windows 10 Pro 1709 on a desktop.

Any solutions ??

:)

Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller Problem Windows 10

I had a similar problem and had tried all the suggestions about re-installing drivers etc. In the end I stumbled on this which worked: I disabled Green Ethernet in the advanced settings of the Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller Properties.

 

realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

In control panel, hardware and sound, pc, it is showing the troubleshoot warning triangle. Right clck and select troubleshoot and it tells me

"Problem detected with Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller.

I have checked in 'advanced' etc, the driver is listed as Microsoft 10/05/2013, 8.1.510.2013 which is says is up-to-date.

Is there really a problem and if so what do I need to do?
