all programs,etc that are installed were already installed several months before this problem accured.
Sometimes an antivirus or firewall or vpn can cause issues such as your out of the blue even after being installed for years. I have been helping on forums for 15 or so years and seen some strange things make a computer lose an internet connection things you would never suspect.
Can you capture what you are seeing and post it here?
Actually, its what im not seeing. All is Okay except when the 5 icons disapear on google..
You load GOOGLE browser, the page has the 5 icons (top right corner showing -email-Images-flask-dots and pic). Thats all there is to it. When those 5 icons do not load, when they dissapear, I can no longer load and web sites…I can still work on non online pages,etc. I know I do not express myself very clearly.
