A "ton" of Network Adapters!
Hello,
First of all, pardon me IF my inquiry has been already addressed. I did not have time to search.
After clean-installing Windows 10 Pro, yesterday, many new Network Adapters have appeared on my Device Manager.
Does anyone have any idea what all these are?
Is it safe to remove them, and if so, how?
I'd like to add that, as I always do, I already had the appropriate Network driver on my USB stick, where I keep all the necessary drivers and install them in every clean installation. This time, though, Windows already had the "most appropriate driver" for my network, and it did not allow me to install my LAN driver. This happened despite the fact that I performed my clean install without an Internet connection. My modem-router was powered off during the installation. How did Windows get the most appropriate driver?
Thank you.
