I have notebook running W10 (not an upgrade).

Access to the internet (via my wireless hub) is lost.

I've looked on help sites and it seems there is a problem like this following an upgrade but my machine had W10 from new.


Any ideas?

TIA

I have an Android LG, Eddie, and I can share the mobile data with a laptop or tablet by either:

without the cable, as above but instead of 'tethering' tap wifi hotspot

SUCCESS !!!

I managed to download the files 'Chico suggested and get them across to the crippled machine. When I ran the programme it gave me an option to "repair" which I thought I'd try first rather than uninstalling and reinstalling. That did the trick.

Thanks to all for your valuable contributions. I'm in for a few Brownie points as it is Mrs NJ's machine! I can't share those with you and unfortunately I can't award you all best answers so ba to 'Chico for coming up with the eventual cure.
