Method 1

Apply hot fix from Microsoft to overcome the generic host network issues

Method 2 – Reset Winsock

If the Winsock subsystem has become corrupted or is no longer working properly, you may end up with this error. You can fix it by opening a command prompt (Start, Run, type in CMD).


Once at the command prompt, just type
netsh winsock reset
and press enter. This will reset the Winsock Catalog. You should restart your computer.

Method 3 : Registry Fix

Lastly, if nothing else has worked, you can try modifying a registry key that could solve your problem. You should only do this as a last resort since it entails messing with the registry, which can be dangerous.

Make sure you perform a backup before making any changes. Then go to the following registry key:
HK_Local_Machine – System – Current Control Set – Services – Browser – Parameters
Then look for a key called IsDomainMaster and make sure the value is set to false. If the key does not exist, go ahead and create a new String value (REG_SZ) and give it a value of false.

Method 4
