How to fix error error-network-not-available in Windows 11

Solution Steps

1. 1 Check if the network adapter is enabled: press Windows key + X and select 'Device Manager'. Expand 'Network adapters'. If your adapter is disabled (down arrow), right-click and select 'Enable'.
2. 2 If the adapter is enabled but not working, try updating the driver: right-click the adapter and select 'Update driver'. Choose 'Search automatically for drivers'. If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you may need to download it from the manufacturer's website.
3. 3 Run the network troubleshooter: go to Settings → System → Troubleshoot → Other troubleshooters, and run 'Network Adapter'. This can automatically fix common issues.
4. 4 Reset the network stack: open Command Prompt as administrator and run the following commands: 'netsh winsock reset', 'netsh int ip reset', and 'ipconfig /flushdns'. Then restart your PC. These commands reset the network settings to default, which can fix corrupted configurations.
5. 5 If the issue started after a Windows update, you can try uninstalling the update: go to Settings → Windows Update → Update history → Uninstall updates. Look for recent updates and uninstall them, then restart.
