Windows 10: WHY HAVE ETHERNET DRIVERS DISSAPEARED

Why is it that whenever I install the Update for Windows 10, windows update that my Ethernet doesn't work anymore? and when I roll back the update a nerve-wracking process the ethernet still does not work. The drivers are completely gone for the ethernet. The option for LAN settings in BIOS also does not exist. It's as if the drivers were completely wiped from every existence.Obviously, it's because I rolled back the old update. Is the new update that I got bugged/broken?I need answers, please.

Constantly disconnecting with ethernet cable

Hello,

Thank you for keeping us posted on the status of the issue.

I suggest you to check if rolling back the Ethernet driver helps to resolve the issue. Follow the below steps.

• First of all, Press Windows logo + R from keyboard. It will open
  RUN.
• Now type devmgmt.msc and press Enter to open Device Manager.
• You will see all the device list of your PC. Expand Network Adapters

Rollback driver

Double click on your Ethernet driver in Device Manager. Then Click on
Driver tab and select Rollback.

Important: If your drive is performing well and there is no error, Rollback driver button will be grayed out as an option.

If it still does not help, I suggest you to reinstall the drivers for the Ethernet driver and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

Note: Once you uninstall the drivers the Ethernet adapter device will be disabled and you won’t be able to connect to internet. So it is advisable to keep all the installer files as a back up in your hard drive.

Write to us with the results for further assistance.

Thank You.
