Type the command “netsh interface tcp show global” into the command prompt box (without quotation marks) to view the configuration options of the computer in question. Hold down the “Shift” and “CTRL” keys on the keyboard, tap the “Enter” key and click “Yes” on the UAC prompt that opens. From the desktop, hold the “Windows” key on your keyboard and open the command prompt by typing “cmd.exe” into the box that appears. Those who wish to disable Window Auto Tuning and regain some of their lost Internet connection speed can do so using the command prompt. Luckily, it’s a problem with a relatively straightforward solution.
If you’ve recently updated your computer to Windows 10 and feel that your Internet speeds are slower than normal or are generally more sluggish than you’d like, there is a very high chance that this feature is why.
The issue is that the default configuration options used by the feature (which itself automatically runs by default) are NOT optimized for every type of connection out there. It’s actually a modern version of a feature that has been around since the days of Windows Vista that is designed to improve the way that certain programs perform when sending TCP data over a network connection. Like much of the Windows 10 operating system, the Window Auto Tuning feature built into the software was created with only the best of intentions. Now, thanks to the recently released Windows 10 anniversary update, a certain feature that is enabled by default could potentially be slowing a person’s computer down without them realizing that they have a problem in the first place. Whether a user explicitly wanted them or not, update files often downloaded without a user’s express permission and could even automatically install themselves under certain conditions. First, Microsoft drew criticism because of the “forced” nature of the updates. Microsoft’s Windows 10 operating system has been mired in controversy almost since its public unveiling a little over a year ago.
