A Connection to the Remote Computer Could not be Established.

We are using VPN service connect to our corporate office from remote location. Because of this service, we can access our corporate office resources. It's no matter where we are at, it's only  needed internet access.

But occasionally some unexpected issues occur while establishing this VPN connection. Today we will discuss a similar issue in this article. 

A connection to the remote computer could not be established. You might need to change the network settings for this connection. 

We get this error message when establishing the VPN connection. Typically, with a virtual adapter, the windows operating system established this VPN connection. Due to problems with those virtual adapters, we get error message. So resetting the virtual adapter will solve our problem. From "Device Manger" we can reset these adapters. The following adapter needs to be reset for resolution. These adapter are hidden by default. We need to enable "Show hidden device" option for viewing these adapter. 

Wan miniport IP

Wan miniport ipv6

Wan miniport pptp

To reset these adapter, just right click on that and select uninstall. After the uninstall complete, just restart your computer. 

Here whole process is shown via graphical mode.

To open device manager, open "run" from start menu. And then type "devmgmt.msc". After opening the "Device Manager" console go to "View" tab from "Menu bar", and click on "Show hidden device" option.

Now expand "Network adapters". Right click on those adapter and select "uninstall". Here, you should remember one thing. If you use "PPTP" vpn then you should uninstall "WAN Miniport (PPTP)". If you use "L2TP" VPN then you should uninstall "WAN Miniport (L2TP)".

That's all. After the uninstall complete, just restart your computer. The VPN connection should be established now. 

We Couldn't Install Windows in This Location You Choose. Please Check Your Media Drive.

At present, Microsoft's most modern and popular operating system is "Windows 10". So many of us upgrade our old systems to windows 10. We have several problems during this upgrade or when installing windows 10 on an older system. We will discuss a one of those problem here today. 

When installing windows 10 on an old system, we often got the following message. 

We couldn't install windows in the location you choose. Please check your media drive.

There are two types of communication mode in the storage, that we use in our computer. One of them is "AHCI" and the other one is "IDE" or "ATA". These are also called hard disk controller mode. 

Of these controllers, windows 10 only supports "AHCI" mode. So without this mode we cannot run or install windows 10 using any other mode. And that's why we get that error message. If the hard disk controller mode "ATA" or "IDE" is selected during windows 10 install, we will face this problem. And to solve this problem, we need to make the controller mode "AHCI". 

And this hard disk configuration mode can only be selected form the "BIOS"."BIOS" can have this option under different names. Such as, SATA Configuration, SATA Mode, Storage Controller etc.  

Whatever the name it is, our purpose will be hard disk configuration mode "AHCI" is selected. So, that error message won't come. Also we need to keep in mind that, boot mode must be selected as "UEFI" mode. In this case, there should be no "Legacy" or any other mode. Otherwise the system will not boot. 

Hope you will be  succeed.
