Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface Needs Reinstalling in Windows 7
 

I need to reinstall Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface so that I can use Homegroup in Windows 7, as it requires IPv6.

This was there before, but problems with ZoneAlarm (now uninstalled) and
following advice elsewhere this was 'unistalled' and means this is now no longer lsited under Device Manger, even after selecting 'show hidden devices'. Windows 7 Homegroup will not connect tells me I need IPV6 enabled

• IPV6 is selected against Network adators etc
• I have deselected IPV6 against Network Adapator, rebooted, reselected IPV6 & rebooted, but nothing seems to force this back.
• ipconfig /all only lists IP4 not IP6
• No system restore available

How do I reinstall Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface so it again shows in Netwok Adapators in Device manager, please?

Happy for DOS style commands, just don't want to have to reinstall Windows 7, if all all possible

Cheers

i take it you have other W7 machines in the house?

have you tried going to Action > Scan for hardware changes from within Device manager?

Re: Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface Needs Reinstalling in Windows 7
 

Yes

Yes, tried that as well, but nothing detected.

Any further suggestions, please?

Cheers

Try right clicking your network connection in Network & Sharing Centre -> Change Adaptor Settings

Goto properties

Click on add and try each of the 3 sections and see if it's in one of those


Otherwise, try uninstalling your network card driver and reinstalling it

Thanks for suggestions. It's not listed there (I think it only shows in Device Manager). I have removed all protocols - IP4 & IP6 only let you untick - and removed Network card driver etc. The only protocol not installed is 'reliable multicast protocol' but that was never installed.

Thanks very much for the suggestions, though I feel it may just be quicker to bite the bullet and reinstall Windows. I have most of my software and back-up of documents etc. on other partitions so it won't be too much trouble to add it back afterwards.

Cheers

Try all of this:

1. Temporarily disable Firewall and third party antivirus program on the computer for a test.

2. Verify relevant services
=========================
a. Click "Start", type "services.msc" (without quotation marks) in Search Bar and press Enter.

Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.

b. Right click the "Peer Networking Grouping" service and choose Properties.
c. Please check if the service is started; if not, please click the Start button and see if it works.
d. You may also choose Automatic next to Startup type.
e. Click OK.
f. Please repeat the above steps with another service: PNRP Machine Name Publication Service.

3. Modify IPv6 registry key to enable IPV6
==========================
a. Click Start, type regedit in Search Bar, and then click regedit in the Programs list.

Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click Continue.

b. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\servic es\TCPIP6\Parameters

c. Check whether the "DisabledComponents" registry key exists. If so, let's move on the next steps.

d. Double click the "DisabledComponents" registry key and modify the value to 0.

(If the key doesn't exist, please create the key above and assign the value 0)

e. Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

Wooooooooh it now works :)

webcrawler2050 I can't thank you enough for resolving this for me. I'd say I've been tearing my hair out, but I don't have much left to tear!

Just for information, should anyone else come across this same issue, for me the problem was at "PNRP Machine Name Publication Service" - this was at 'Stop'. I started this and set to Automatic. I also changed Peer Networking Grouping" to 'Automatic'', it was on 'Start' but showed 'Manual'. I presume there is no problem (security wise) leaving them both on 'Manual'?

By way of a thank you, have a beer on me :beer: Sorry it's only a virtual pint, perhaps santa will bring you a real one.

Thanks again, and :xmas:.

Your most welcome. I've seen it atleast 7 times here at Medion with Win 7 machines.

Nice pint there :)

Well done for one of the more helpful posts this month.:clap:

Shame this copy / paste jobbie was made in 2009 to qualify.

Re: Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface Needs Reinstalling in Windows 7
 

Possibly but my remark about it being one of the more helpful posts this month still stands as tich found it helpful.

The frequency of helpful posts has dropped dramatically around the site and I'm truly sad to see it.:(

Re: Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface Needs Reinstalling in Windows 7
 

On the plus side you can say people aren't asking as many questions, so there's nothing much to answer to. I'm sure any questions (technical or not) put to this forum will always be dealt with very well. So to say helpful posts have dropped (in your context) is a tad out of sorts.

Re: Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface Needs Reinstalling in Windows 7
 

I get around a lot of the site.People are still asking questions but sadly they don't always get the level of patience that is sometimes required possibly because it's the same or similar question for help that has been answered before.Repetition possibly has become boring.:)
