Can't connect to any networks; no shell commands work; can't flush DNS cache

I'm using windows 10 64 bit. I can't connect to the internet. I just keep getting "Dns_probe_finished_nxdomain" on Chrome.



I've tried running windows troubleshooter and it says "Troubleshooting can't identify the problem."



I've set my ipv4 DNS addresses to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.



I've restarted my computer.



I've done /ipconfig release and /ipconfig renew.



I tried ipconfig /flushdns and all it says is "Windows IP Configuration" and it's been stuck like that for ten minutes.



I tried opening Windows Services to manually restart the DNS Client but the options to do that are all greyed out-- a little Googling suggests that might be intentional for windows 10.



I've tried net stop dnscache in command prompt and it says "The service is not responding to the control function".



I know it's my laptop and not my internet because my phone works fine connected to the same network.

          Try the following (running the commands in the order specified).





          • Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults:



            netsh int ip reset reset.log




          • Reset Firewall to installation defaults:



            netsh advfirewall reset




          • Flush DNS resolver cache:



            ipconfig /flushdns




          • Renew DNS client registration and refresh DHCP leases:



            ipconfig /registerdns




          • Flush routing table (reboot required):



            route /f
