[FIX] Windows 10 says "No Internet" Even Though I'm Online

 Hey there!

I've seen people with that same issue online and it happened to me too.

I've tried the following and nothing worked:

• Resetting the network (losing all passwords :( )
• Resetting the router itself and re-configuring it from scratch (this worked for literally 5 seconds)
• Putting in a lot of netsh commands in an Administrator CMD
• Modified some registry values which turn on "Probing"

All of these to no avail.

What worked was the following:

Paste this into a .txt file and then change its extension to .reg:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\NlaSvc\Parameters\Internet]

"ActiveDnsProbeContent"="88.221.52.97"

"ActiveDnsProbeHost"="www.msftncsi.com"

"ActiveWebProbeContent"="Microsoft NCSI"

"ActiveWebProbeHost"="www.msftncsi.com"

"ActiveWebProbePath"="ncsi.txt"

"EnableActiveProbing"=dword:00000001

Now double click that file and grant it Administrator rights.

Windows 10 should now stop nagging about no internet access after around 5 minutes. I didn't get to try rebooting straight after this, but this worked out for me! :D

NOTE: The path in the registry file might be the following instead:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NlaSvc\Parameters\Internet]
