Enhancing Internet Speed on Windows 10
1. Disable Updates Delivery
Step 1: To disable Updates Delivery, first, access Windows Settings by pressing the Windows + I key combination or clicking the Windows icon in the bottom left corner of the screen and selecting Settings from the gear icon as shown below.
Step 2: The Windows Settings interface will appear; continue by clicking on Update & Security.
Step 3: Next, locate the Update Settings section and click on the Advanced Options choice.
Step 4: Scroll down and click on the Choose how updates are delivered option.
Step 5: Here, toggle the switch to Off in the Updates from more than one place section as shown below.
Disabling Updates Delivery prevents the operating system from automatically downloading Windows update files during usage, preventing it from slowing down the internet. Additionally, you can take a more robust approach to turn off Windows 10 updates through a guide on blocking Win 10 automatic updates. However, be aware that there may be some complications during setup, and Windows Store may become unusable.
2. Disable Internet Bandwidth Limit on Windows 10
Step 1: To implement this method, first, press the Windows + R key combination to open the Run dialog, enter the command gpedit.msc, and press OK or Enter.
Step 2: The Local Group Policy Editor interface will appear; navigate to the Limit reservable bandwidth under Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Network/QoS Packet Scheduler/Limit reservable bandwidth.
Step 3: Double-click on Limit reservable bandwidth; here, check the Enabled option, set the value to 0%, and press OK to complete the setup.
This configuration will enable Windows 10 to utilize your internet speed to its full 100%, without any limitations, resulting in a significant improvement in speed.
3. Disable Window Auto-Tuning
Window Auto-Tuning is a feature that hinders your internet speed, causing delays in network connections to programs and difficulties in sending and receiving data. This feature is enabled by default for each individual thread in the system and can impede network connectivity during usage. Therefore, we need to disable Window Auto-Tuning.
Step 1: First, left-click on the Windows icon in the bottom left corner of the screen, type Command Prompt, and right-click on it, selecting Run as administrator.
Step 2: The Command Prompt window appears; enter the command netsh interface tcp show global and press Enter.
Here, pay attention to the line Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level currently at Normal, indicating that it is restricted.
Step 3: Next, enter netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled to disable Window Auto-Tuning.
Thus, the Window Auto-Tuning feature is now disabled. Now, simply restart your computer and then run a few programs to test the internet speed on Windows 10. Feel the improvement in speed after this feature is turned off. Of course, nothing is perfect. If you want to re-enable this feature later, simply enter the command netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=enabled in the Command Prompt window.
