I saw it and it does not solve the problem. If I remove all other devices and only leave the C drive in the system, I have the same issues.

The C drive has nothing to do with this. You have an onboard NIC and an onboard Bluetooth as Asus's website shows. Everything you need for information on that motherboard is on their website. The USB adapter for Wifi has nothing to do with this, nor does the second Intel NIC card. It is a driver problem that was caused when you removed the device and drivers. If you had someone build the system for you, they can help get it up and running again and show you how to fix it if it happens again.
you told him it was cos of his dual boot , and I don't think it is , in fact the Nics should still work in the other OS's if it is a driver Fault in Win10.
The Drivers are installed it seems since DM sees them all ,which is why I thought it maye a protocol issue, ie they are missing or something.

Is that a light I see??? You get it.
I boot into other OS and all is well.
I boot Win 10 and Device Manager see's all and says all is well
I look at networks and none of my adapters are showing up as networks.
Last night I upgraded my system with a new motherboard (and new built in network adapters) and Win 10 has the same problem. Other OS's are still fine. Of course, I had to load new drivers, etc for each OS.
I completely agree that it's a problem with the the protocols.
How can I rip out and/or replace all the protocols?

Did you do a fresh install of Windows 10? Changing the motherboard means a new license, which means that you have to purchase it if Windows 10 did not ship with that motherboard. You cannot take a preinstalled version for a completely different Motherboard and use it on another Motherboard.
Microsoft completely disagrees with you. To quote them, "You're friend is totally wrong". Switching MB doesn't effect your licence.
I noticed that you didn't have any idea how to fix my problem, ie, how to remove/replace the protocols.
If you have Retail Win10 ,then I think you can move it machine to machine...........(if used on only one machine)
Post #8 (2nd part) is supposed to work like the Reset Network button Win10 now has..... did you try it?

Full disclosure: Office gave me grief but a 5 minute call to MS, told them I replaced motherboard and it's resolved.
The OS has not balked at all just like MS told me.
Post #8: I did and every time, it failed on the last or next to last command
Any idea how to reinstall all the protocols?
If you are getting the missing protocols error with networking. It is because of the lock that Microsoft put to stop Guest access through SMB/CIFS. There is a tutorial that walks you through stopping the service and restarting it in the tutorials section on here.
"There is a tutorial that walks you through stopping the service and restarting it in the tutorials section on here."
I have no idea what that is supposed to tell me. It doesn't matter as I am not getting the message you mentioned.
What I am still looking to do is to reload the protocols that appear to be missing/broken.
