Windows 10 "ipconfig /renew" not working
Solution 1:
Wireless Local Area Connection 3 is a Microsoft Virtual Adapter as you can see in your second post. It will not renew because it is not connected to anything.
Your wireless LAN adapter Wifi does have an IP address. ipconfig /renew
will not renew adapters that have no connection. Every computer with wireless and an Ethernet port will have an error like this if they are not both connected.
It is usually better to do an ipconfig /release
before doing an ipconfig /renew
just to make sure it clears, look at your adapters when you do the release first and you will see your IP is getting renewed.
That's all you asked about but you mention, this has been giving me problems for quite a while
, have you been seeing this error a while or is there a real problem?
