Virtual NICs will not go away after removing hyperv


 

i tried installing hyperv on system, ran issue documented on forum virtual system cannot bind either of nics (switch failure). after deciding hyperv isn't quite right yet, tried removing but, removal wasn't clean. after rebooting, my system didn't past step 3 of 3 of removal process , froze @ 78% of removal, had manually reboot. system came without hyperv, left of virtual network adapters , virtual switches in network config. i've tried deleting them, os won't let me. i'm experiencing network issues now, , want these gone can eliminate these potential problem.

how clean mess up?

 

thanks!

unfortunately adapters in rc0 difficult remove.

you can use slight variation of:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899868

however, instead of looking “false” adapters in step 4, adapters “product type” “microsoft virtual network switch adapter”

instead of steps 6 , 7 in kb following:

6. locate following registry key, , change following registry value 0:

hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\class\{4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\the false ethernet network adaptor index number\characteristics

7. use device manager “uninstall” adapter.
