I have a puzzling issue. My Windows 10 machine one day a few weeks ago started to have connectivity problems. Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Steam have almost no ability to complete a web request (Can't connect to server
message almost every time). Tor Browser and some other services work fine.
I was using Autoruns64 to look at start-up processes that may be the cause, and disabled a couple that weren't signed by Windows 10 while debugging. Sadly one of them was the service that handles the Network & Sharing center, and now Windows can't see my wireless adapters.
Service that handles adapters disabled
(The More information...
link does nothing, by the way.)
I've tried the Windows option to uninstall network device drivers and reset network settings to factory. The service did not restart.
My question is: what service is this, and how do I re-enable it? I'm pretty sure the original connectivity issue is DNS-related and I'd like to be able to change the adapter settings. Any help is appreciated!
