Whatever all this code is, it is absurd to ask the average user to execute this. The laptop running Windows 11 should find the available networks just like my phone and iPad do. Please send a fix so I don’t have to reset the network or reinstall drivers every time I change networks. It worked fine in Windows 10. So it must be a software problem. Thank you for caring about your customers. ?
Why do I have to do a network reset EVERY TIME I start my computer?
Updated to windows 11 a couple weeks ago and every single time I start my computer, I have to do the network reset process to connect to the internet. I never had a single issue with internet before the update. No, it is not my router.
I am getting really frustrated as I am a student and use my computer all the time. It's absurd I have to spend 30 minutes resetting and rebooting my computer.

My name is Paloma B., I am very happy to be able to try to help you in the best possible way.
I understand that you have trouble installing a game from the Microsoft Store, I'm sorry to hear that.
Please perform the procedures below and please verify that the behavior still persists.
Step 1
Reset the Windows Update components manually.
Stop BITS, cryptographic, MSI Installer and Windows Update Services. To do this, enter the following commands at the command prompt.
- Press Windows + R, type Notepad and click OK;
- Copy and paste the commands below into this new notebook:
SC config trustedinstaller start=auto
net stop bits
net stop wuauserv
net stop msiserver
net stop cryptsvc
net stop appidsvc
Ren %Systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
Ren %Systemroot%\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old
regsvr32.exe /s atl.dll
regsvr32.exe /s urlmon.dll
regsvr32.exe /s mshtml.dll
netsh winsock reset
netsh winsock reset proxy
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /ScanHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /CheckHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanup
Sfc /ScanNow
net start bits
net start wuauserv
net start msiserver
net start cryptsvc
net start appidsvc
- Click the File tab> Save as> Select the desktop;
- Define the name as Wufix.bat and in the field below under Type select all files;
- Click save;
- Right-click on the Wufix file and click Run as administrator;
- Wait until the end of the procedure on the black screen;
- Restart the PC.
Step 2
Resetting network settings
- Press the “Win + I” keys together to enter the Windows “Settings” menu;
- Then, enter the item "Network and Internet";
- From the "Status" tab, look for the "Network reset" item and click on it;
- On the new screen, click on “Restore Now” and restart your computer as prompted.
- After performing this procedure, the machine may take a while during the next startup, but just wait for it to be back to normal the next time. If you use a Wi-Fi network, be sure to connect to it again to use it again.
I await news.
If these procedures helped you in any way, please click on "I solved my problem" and also mark as an answer, so you can help others users.
We will always be available for whatever you need!

2022-03-17T22:13:45+00:00 I'm going to have to guess here, since you haven't shared the details of how your network is setup.
Many posters here have tried to setup their network from Windows. This is actually a mistake, because your network is created by your router, and it's your router that manages your network. So you really should be using the router's own setup utility to create and manage your network.
When you do things this way, your network is unaffected by whatever happens to Windows (your router doesn't even use Windows) and your network will continue to exist even if Windows goes kablooie.
So what I think you should do is to dig up your router's owners guide, which should have complete, step-by-step instructions for setting up your network. Then undo whatever network setup you did in Windows and instead follow the router's owners guide. Now you're on the road to a solid and stable home network.
