• Restart your Android device and computer both and connect.

At first USB computer connection setting called media transfer protocol is one of the significant issues which makes your Android smartphone unrecognized on your PC.

4] Enable the USB debugging mode

USB debugging mode is one of the best options which are sometimes helping us to fix several issues. So here we advise you to enable USB debugging mode on your Android device. If the mode is enabled, it good if not follow the steps instructed below.

But it is only compatible with Android 4.2.2 and the later version.

• At first, open your Android device settings option.
• Now search for phone option and open it.
• Tap the “build number” shows on your screen for seven times.

There is only one way to check whether USB cable is ok or not. Just you have to do to test by charging of your Android device. If it is not charged then, there is some problem with USB cable. Then you should buy an original cable.

6] Turn on the flight mode

This way of solution is not so much significant, but sometimes it happens. Due to the connectivity of your sim card sometimes it stops to recognized on the computer.

In this case, you have to first go to settings of Android device then search for flight mode then turn on it.

It helps you to recognize by your computer, that will transfer or manage your data files without making any hazard.

7] Update MTP USB device driver of your Windows 10

This is a big issue that in the old version of MTP drivers there will be a lot of bug occurring in the software. So sometimes your device is not recognized due to this MTP driver problem. So I request you to update your MTP USB drive as soon as you can possible. You can solve it in few steps.

To fix this issue, you have to do a few steps as instructed below.

• At first, uninstall your pre-install Android driver from the control panel option.
• Then you have to connect your device to PC through USB cable.
• At the same time, it automatically installs the Android driver from your Android device.

After completing the installation process just restart your computer and reconnect your USB cable and you can recognize your device with your PC easily.

10] Use third-party drivers solution

You connect your Android device to your PC it can automatically install its driver, but sometimes for anonymous cause, it cannot install. One of the big reason is if you’re not using the Internet your driver which install on your computer can be not up to date. Due to this problem, the driver is not working correctly.

So this problem is fantastically solved by third-party software used to boost up your driver. Its name is ‘Driver Booster Pro.’ But you must have an Internet connection to through which the software download the driver and install it easily.If you don’t have it, click on download.

• After scanning all of the drivers, it shows you the number and detail of driver either it is up to date or outdated.
• At the end of this process by getting your permission, it automatically updates your drivers.

After completing this process, it will review your computer to get the best effect of updated Windows 10.

Wrap Up

If you did not get any response from your computer to recognize your Android device, then there will be our last and remarkably solution to fix the MTP.

• Have to go to C:WINDOWSINF
• Search for any file type wpdmtp.inf on the search bar located on the right side of the address bar of Windows 10.
• After finding it, just make a right click on it and select the install option.
• Within a few moments, it will install correctly.

After completing the installation process, please reboot your computer. After that connect your device to your PC

Now according to me I always prefer to use the driver booster because it makes a new life of my computer. Whenever my laptop was slow down, I still use it and update the driver of my laptop. It’s my advice to you guys please up to date your computer driver at the time. Whenever you’re using the Internet, just check it whether your driver is updated.

Missing Ipv4 Protocol Windows 10

Jan 4, 2016

I just had this very annoying issue for a while, and scouring the internet proved to no avail. However, I stumbled upon the solution by myself. Simply go into an elevated command prompt and enter netsh int ipv4 install and restart your computer.
This is what solved the problem for me, though I had already tried a few suggestions (resetting winsock, giving permissions in NSI, etc) so that might have something to do with it.

Networking :: One Or More Network Protocols Are Missing On This Computer?

Feb 23, 2016

this issue has plagued me forever since windows 10, and even slightly in windows 8.1. this issue would come randomly and i cant connect to internet even if i were a point blank in front of the router. running the troubleshooting does not fix it. the only way to fix it most of the time is to disable the wifi adapter for about 2 minutes and re enable it again. in some cases only a reboot can fix it and in rare cases it can only be fixed by uninstalling the wifi drivers and starting over.i have tried with 3 different wifi adapters, 2 computers and 2 routers.
it seems to struggle the most with connecting to optimum wifi/Xfinity wifi (which my laptop is added to my account) its mainly this optimum wifi here causing issues making router itself a issue but still. the other router is my 4g sprint hotspot, sometimes on rare occasion the same thing happens.

Networking :: One Or More Network Protocols Are Missing On This Computer

Jan 2, 2016

This happened after the latest major update.
I've tried the following steps with no success 1) sfc /scannow. This showed no errors
2) netsh advfirewall reset netsh int ip reset*** netsh int ipv6 reset netsh int ipv4 reset netsh winsock reset *** This command did not work originally until I went to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControl and changed Control/NSI folder 26 permission to everyone (This box was unchecked again after reboot
3) ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /registerdns ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew
4) Disabling and Renabling the Network Adapter within device manager.
5) Uninstalling the driver
6) Installing the latest drivers both from the Asrock/intel website and googling my network adapter.
7) I saw the fix where someone deletes the Windows 10 WIN and WIN2, and replaces with a clean Windows 7/8 version in this registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesWinsock HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesWinsock2
- Did not work also, it gave me a new problem no ethernet something which troubleshoot can't also fix.
8) Finally Reset W10. Still get the same error

Networking :: No Internet Connection - Missing Network Protocols

Feb 10, 2016

I have suddenly noticed a problem with internet connection. I cannot download any apps from Microsoft store (with unknown error message). Strange is that each other software (cloud clients, browser, ....) works perfectly.
I have already searched for solution on google and found command wsreset.exe but this did not work..
I have also tried network troubleshooter. It has found these errors:There is one or more missing network protocols. Windows sockets registry entries are missing
I have tried to repair these errors with some netsh commands, which actually did something but did not solve anything.
Another solution is to reinstall network drivers but this did not work either.

Networking :: Missing Network Protocols Prevent Access To Shared Folder?

Feb 10, 2016

From one of my Windows 10 machines I am unable to access the shared folders on the other. The troubleshooter says 'One or more network protocols are missing on this computer' and 'Windows Sockets registry entries required for network connectivity are missing.'
I have run sfc /scannow, but no problems were found. I don't get the problem when sharing in the other direction or when accessing the shared folders on the same machine.
This comes amidst a cluster of sharing-related problems. Before the reboot after which the present problem manifested itself, shares going in the other direction were invisible in the network browser (but could be accessed via the search bar). Also, the machine in question does not appear in the HomeGroup browser even though it is a member of the HomeGroup.

Networking :: Network Protocols / Windows Sockets Registry Entries Required For Connectivity Missing

Nov 15, 2015

Problem trying to connect to internet on laptop, but all working as normal on desktop.
Investigations revealed....one or more Network Protocols are missing on this computer, also Windows sockets registry entries required for network connectivity are missing....this on both Ethernet and wireless but they had been working perfectly since the update last week.
My laptop supposedly required 'Internet connections Package Version 3.0 Publisher Microsoft Windows.'
After messing about for an hour without success I loaded the 1511.. ISO.. knowing that I could not connect to the internet to download anything, this seemed to solve the problem, (fingers crossed) I can only assume this made the internet connection possible.

One Or More Network Protocols Are Missing

Apr 5, 2016

Several times a day, my laptop's WiFi connection status changes from 'Internet access' to 'No internet'. When I use 'Troubleshoot problems', I get this: 'One or more network protocols are missing on this computer - Windows sockets registry entries required for network connectivity are missing'. Trying the 'perform repairs as administrator' fix does nothing, but restarting the computer lets me connect properly again. However, losing connectivity and restarting my computer every couple hours is getting irritating.
Earlier in the year I was getting the same message, but at that time simply restarting wouldn't fix it, I believe I needed to do either 'netsh winsock reset' or 'netsh int ip reset'. I honestly don't remember why it stopped happening, possibly changing away from Bitdefender antivirus (which fixed the BSOD problem I was having) worked. I haven't reinstalled Bitdefender, so I assume it's not that.
Some details:
· OS - Windows 10, 64-bit
· originally Windows 7
· Windows 10 installed via free upgrade
· Age of system: 2.5 years
· Age of OS installation: 6 months, have not re-installed
· System Manufacturer: Lenovo
· Exact model number: Lenovo IdeaPad U310, model name 437

One Or More Network Protocols Are Missing Internet Error

Jan 27, 2016

After updating my windows 10 rig, I cannot connect to the internet. When I run the troubleshooter, this error message shows up, 'one or more network protocols are missing'.

Lenovo Z575 Laptop - One Or More Network Protocols Missing

Jan 6, 2016

I have a Lenovo Z575 laptop w/ Windows 10. I recently updated to Windows 10 a couple months ago and everything was fine up until recently. I've been having this issue the past couple of days where I try to load up a webpage, it states that connection has timed out, so I use the Troubleshoot Problems option for my wifi, and it gives me the statement 'One or more network protocols are missing'. I used the 'netsh int ip reset' command in the Command Prompt, and that seemed to work at first, but yesterday it happened again, only this time, it seems to pick and choose what pages load.

One Or More Network Protocols Missing Message After Clean Install

Mar 16, 2016

So as the title says I'm receiving this error when connecting to the internet that says 'one or more internet protocols is missing on this device'.
First a little back story: To make it short, I just I replaced the power supply in my PC, and disconnected/reconnected all cables, including data cables. When I booted my PC back up I was having this issue. The icon shows that I have internet but it will not connect in the browser or download updates.
I have seen other threads with this same error message and I have tried every software fix I have seen at this point, including uninstalling and reinstalling my drivers. In desperation I did a clean install of windows 10 hoping it would fix this issue.

Networking :: Missing Internet Protocols?

Feb 10, 2016

So I have been without internet for a couple weeks and have spent hours trying to figure out what is wrong with my computer. I only have an ethernet port on my machine, connected to my router via powerline adapters (which work with my other PCs). Windows troubleshooter tells me that there are missing protocols, I have tried various things and nothing has worked. I have already tried: winsock reset(tool), replacing my winsock registry keys with another windows pc, I have tried that sfc /scannow command, no errors were found, i have also tried disabling netbios.
At some point I accidentally uninstalled 'microsoft network adapter multiplexer protocol', dont know how to reinstall it and now I am getting and ip config error from the troubleshooter. At this point I am thinking about re-installing windows. Is there a way to do this without losing settings for applications? This is such a freaking mess.

We have 2 desktops, 2 convertibles and an hp tablet. We started with total mess network wise - tried most of the fixes and none really worked. I removed homegroup and started over making sure ALL units were in homegroup and still had problems. After many tries of fixes etc. I discovered two of the units were in different workgroups??
We are finally able to see all computers on all the computers but are left with two network drives which show up as media units but never show up and available in the computer area on all computers. Both show up fine on my desktop but never on any of the other units.
Have rebooted, checked settings and what to check now. We have used networking of some sort for years and depend on it - have been without it now for way too long.

I have removed Avast anti-virus and have Windows firewall set to default settings running with Defender.
