Introduction
Microsoft has released the Windows 10 creators update, which is a major update to the Windows 10 operating system. This update introduces many new features and improvements, but it also appears to be causing some problems for some users.
One of the common problems that users report is that they can no longer connect to the Internet after installing the update. This can be a major problem, as it means that you will not be able to access the Internet or any online services.
There are a number of possible causes for this problem, but it seems that the most likely cause is that the update has caused some changes to the way that your computer connects to your router or modem. In most cases, you should be able to fix this problem by simply unplugging your router or modem for a few minutes and then plugging it back in.
If this does not fix the problem, then you may need to try changing your DNS settings. You can do this by going to the Network and Sharing Center in the Control Panel and clicking on Change adapter settings. Then, right-click on your network connection and select Properties. Under the Networking tab, you should see an option called Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4). Select this option and click on Properties. In the General tab, you should see a section called DNS server addresses. You should enter 8.8.8.8 in the Preferred DNS server field and 8.8.4.4 in the Alternate DNS server field.
