Fixing VPN problems in Windows 10

Situation: When attempting to use VPN on Windows 10, you may receive this message: A connection to the remote computer could not be established.  You might need to change the network settings for this connection.

Troubleshooting: Option 1:

  1. Type device in the search, and click on Device Manager.
  2. Under Network Adapters, uninstall all adapters starting with “WAN Miniport” – Right click, Uninstall.
  3. Once you’ve uninstalled all, go to the menu and select “Scan for Hardware Changes” and those adapters will reinstall automatically without restarting.
