Resetting Network Settings is a widely used troubleshooting method used to fix network connectivity issues on computers and mobile devices.

When you Reset Network Settings, any intentional or unintentional changes made to Network settings on your computer will be undone and your device will go back to Factory Default Settings.

While a Network Settings Reset does not erase any data from the computer, it removes all your current Wi-Fi, Ethernet and VPN Networks from the computer.

Hence, make sure that you note down your WiFi Network Password and VPN Network details, before going ahead with the steps to Reset Network Settings on your computer.
