    *** UPDATED LIST *** - Services.msc Settings For Fixing Network


    Here is the updated list of services to change to AUTOMATIC and do a one by one RESTART.

    There are a few new ones listed which when set to automatic and restarted got my network displaying
    once again in the File Explorer panel.

    RUN SERVICES.MSC to get to the services panel.

    If you find any set to MANUAL, go to that service Right Click > Properties > Then change the STARTUP TYPE in the dropdown menu to AUTOMATIC.

    Click APPLY > RESTART that service.

    Homegroup settings no longer useful.

    WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Service:: Stuck at Manual and the settings are greyed out.

    The last post on this thread was in Dec. 2015, may have been outdated by the Version Upgrades and Build updates to them, been quite a few. Always check the post date of the last one to see if still relevant, with computing doesn't take long for things to get outdated.
