What is HostedNetworkStarter?

The Wifi hosted network feature in the Windows operating system allows users to set up a wifi hotspot, facilitating access for any wifi-enabled device to the computer's network and internet connection. However, many users have faced challenges with HostedNetworkStarter crashing when they try to start the hosted network, particularly due to a failure in hnetcfg.dll as it attempts to disable current Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) settings to establish ICS for the new hotspot. It is unclear whether this issue arises from a misconfiguration in HostedNetworkStarter or if it is an underlying bug in the ICS component of Windows 10. Interestingly, a number of users have noted that this problem surfaced after they installed the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, indicating a possible correlation between the update and the crashing problem. Consequently, this leaves users searching for effective solutions to create a stable wifi hotspot without interruptions, as the need for reliable internet access continues to grow in today’s digital world. A user-friendly fix would greatly enhance the experience for those relying on this feature for connectivity.
