No internet access available via Wi-Fi or cable after the funny RAM incident.
I own a Lenovo with an Athlon Gold CPU and experienced some RAM issues (random crashes, etc.). Removing the problematic RAM fixed it. However, Windows seems to be acting strangely. My internet logo is now showing a shadow realm. I ran chkdsk and sfc commands but didn’t see any results. Tried deleting drivers, but that didn’t help either. When I open the control panel, there’s a blank space in the "network" section. I don’t want to reinstall anything because I have important apps that I can’t back up.
Perform an on-the-spot upgrade or repair using a Windows installation USB or Windows Media Creation Tool. This method installs Windows directly onto itself, preserving existing programs and data while only modifying system files. It typically resolves issues without affecting user applications or information.
