Firstly I'm a chinese, so I will try to express the solution precisely.
I've in the troble as you today after i check PtoP and Gateway find program(I'm using
the Chinese edition so I'm afraid I dont't the name of them in English)in the Windows
setup Program in add&remove Program in control pannel,then I got a new conflicted
device which name is "Microsoft Tun Miniport Adapter #2".Then after a lot of attempt,I
check all the components of them(Web Service),which result in a new conflicted device
which is named"#3".Woh...
Then I got the solution,firstly remove the advanced network pack fully,I got the
#3 gone,then disable the #2,reinstall the pack again,then enable the adapter,then
re-unistall it.That's what I got,all conflicted device disappear,just with Microsoft
Tun Miniport Adapter which is in good condition.
So that is maybe caused by check and uncheck some items in web service for more than
one tiome.If all things are right,there should be only one adapter,but becase of
some reason only damn Microsoft know,some tag thst should be make did not work, so
more than one adapter are enabled at the same time,which makes the troble.
Maybe you will find some problem in reading my english,I'm so sorry.But I actually
solve it.if you have some problems with it ,Please contact me use the email:Wondrous_0@Yahoo.com.cn.
We can see Microsoft is always use their hotfixs to make troble that need more hotfixs.
