Windows 11

Should I reset my network?

A network reset changes configuration and is a later troubleshooting step.

TRY THIS FIRST

Check if the problem is only on this PC

Test another device on the same network and check whether one app or every app is affected.

Start with this check

Result: Use what you find to choose the next step.

Still not working?

If only this PC fails, follow the guide’s adapter, DNS and VPN checks first. Before a reset, record custom IP/DNS settings and arrange access to reinstall VPN or virtual-network software.

Check the result: Repeat the original task after making one relevant change. If the problem returns, keep the exact message and time.
