So, my Windows 10 computer has gone to the point I can't use internet anymore. When I check internet settings, the router is disabled and won't re-enable. I tried reinstalling the drivers, updating drivers, spamming re-enable, using netsh int ipv4 and v6 reset, nothing works. Anything I can try to do?
If nothing else works, I will try to reinstall the computer, although I would seriously prefer against it. I do not believe it is a virus as these problems happened and fixed themselves eventually in the past I believe.

You're missing crucial information here.
Are you using wifi or ethernet? Are you on a laptop or a desktop computer? If a desktop computer + wifi, what hardware are you using for wifi? Have you attempted to use the Windows troubleshooter? Have you checked your ipv4 settings? Is DHCP working? Is this an issue with your router itself?

^ Apologies I use Wifi and Desktop. When I can I'll get hardware and DHCP. I used troubleshooter, it never worked. It has nothing with the router, the router works fine when it does this. I believe I have for IPV4.

I believe I have for IPV4. You don't "get DHCP". DHCP is software built into every operating system that automatically gives you an IP address, if you somehow don't have it then that's a problem. Go to your network adapter in the control panel and go to your TCP/IP settings and screenshot it so we know if you're using it or not. If you don't have hardware for wifi then that's your problem. Laptops have wifi built in, desktops do not (correct me if your desktop is supposed to have wifi built in). Screenshot your network area on your taskbar which shows all the available networks so we know if it's working.

I actually use a wifi extended with an ethernet cable in, and that works pretty well. My laptop's wifi card is terrible, it drops out all the time, but when connected to ethernet it just works so much better.

I know someone who’s had the exact same problem and I’ve had temperamental internet when using Windows 10 although I assumed it was most likely me. I might try and find out if anyone else has had this issue.
