[SOLVED] ipconfig /flushdns issue

<< < (2/3) > >>

TairikuOkami:
You could simply disable DNS Cache and then you would not even need to flush it.
Do not forget to setup DNS servers though, otherwise you will not connect at all.

To disable run CMD as admin and enter: sc config Dnscache start= disabled

Or....as a halfway house solution either use Tweaking.com simple system tweaker under "General tweaks", "Keep positive entries in DNS cache for 4 hours instead of 24 hours"  :wink: Or edit the registry as below.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters

"MaxCache Ttl" 14400 (Decimal)

Unfortunately, very bad solution, cause big problems with downloading files.

HTTP Error 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable

I was looking for the cause of problems with downloading files, and also with resuming downloaded files, which also corrupt ext.part

I remembered that edited the settings in the system registry and typed the command to turn off DNS Cashe.

Samson:
I have had "Keep positive entries in DNS cache for 4 hours instead of 24 hours"  set for many years and never had that error message, something else on your system maybe causing it, given all the other problems that you appear to encounter. The price you pay for being a "Power User" I guess  :rolleyes:

Hi, mak..
              By the subject type of your thread, i think it is time for you to repair the windows. I do not say , reinstalling , but repairing windows.
                  I have tried your suggestion of ipconfig/flsuhdns. I set it in my pc using task scheduler. I could just see it is working nicely.
                  Your task schedule is having bug, which cannot be corrected in any other manner than repair windows.
                       I have tried so much methods on corrupted task scheduler and none worked. I adopted new install. If the task schedule is at fault, then the system has strange entries in your registry.
                        There are programs in microsoft that repair registry, but i doubt, they do not move any injurious entries in the registry , leaving the problem not solved. but if you repair, those entries are killed and your computer is clean. Chkdsk sfc would not do much in such circumstances, as far as i know.
