Remove Wan Miniport Windows 10

  • The topic starter solved her issue by reinstalling Windows 10 (very effective, but not very efficient:) ). Another poster solved it by uninstalling all WAN Miniports and scan for hardware changes. Basically what I’ve described above.
  • Wan Miniport Device Manager in Network and Sharing hey guys installed the latest build today, everything seems fine. I found 8 devices under networking in device manager. All wan miniport and this wasn't there earlier ( before the update ). Everything is green and working but i don't even.

Here are the steps to re-install WAN miniport devices. Step 1: Uninstall WAN Miniport Devices. Open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) and on the view menu select Show hidden devices. Under Network adapters, you will see WAN miniport devices (IP, L2TP, Pppoe, PPTP). If you don’t see these, skip to the Step 2 section. Open Registry editor.

Just ran across an issue where the miniport devices were accidently removed from a system. Not having these installed caused the system to have network driver installation and connectivity issues.
