this just started happening in the last three days. I don't know what specifically i am redirected to. It might be ads. i will click on real results, but the links that open in place, have nothing to do with what i click on. i have to click back, then the link again. They don't even appear in my history.

    Read the Read Me file and follow it carefully, guarding against any chance of losing power or being interrupted when doing the BIOS update. For an issue like this the BIOS Update would be important but I'd only do it if you get clear directions along with the download. If in doubt ask in the motherboard or PC's forums or their Support. Usually if you read through all the Support pages for your model PC or motherboard there will be a section on BIOS Updates. Otherwise ask Google how to do one for your exact model.

    updating BIOS didn't work. I would like to know if you have any idea what enabling IPV6 might do? it says it might have something to do with peer to peer and mobile apps. I can see that my adapter is disabled, and it doesn't want to let me enable it.

    Enable or Disable IPv6 in Windows | Tutorials (tenforums.com) this seems like it could be when connecting to a router, yet i know there is wifi in this issue too.

    Here are some good articles explaiting IPv6:

    Feel free to ask back any questions. Based on the results you post back I may have other suggestions if necessary.

    what is your opinion about that? it seems like it might require routers and changing a lot more than enabling on my system. it seems to have drawbacks and vulnerabilities. I could enable it to test it, but I am not sure it will work. I wonder if there are any articles like perhaps on realtek adapters being disabled. The person who created the script in the links we posted said Microsoft treated the problems connecting in safe mode as a fad. it is noted that it simply did not automatically connect, yet people were able to connect, so it just prompts windows to connect automatically. Somebody noted that they still did not get any connections. Tempted to possibly temporarily enable the IPv6 thing. I am aware that most IP addresses are not as long.

    Then the windows in-place upgrade and make a disc image. I don't know if it can cause complications and there is some underlying issue or something like that since other people have had this same situation, and something seems to disable certain adapters. IPv6 suggests in some links to use VPN, but VPN also doesn't work on my adapter. It disconnects me from the internet as well. I am wondering if I should also ask Microsoft again and mention the adapter gets disabled. They might mention the windows reinstallation again.

    I never had so many complicated issues with old versions of Windows. There were blue screens. There were memory issues, and hard drive failures. Blue screens probably. Basically if there were some kind of viruses or malware, they seemed sometimes easier to solve. safe mode and with networking were not impossible to access. Some issues were not easy, but Windows 10 seems more complicated with hardware conflicts.

    I have no opinion about it.
