To change the DNS settings on a Windows computer, follow these steps:
1. Open the "Control Panel" or "Settings" on your Windows PC.
2. In the Control Panel, you can select "Network and Sharing Center." In the Settings app, you should choose "Network & Internet" and then "Wi-Fi" or "Ethernet" depending on your connection type.
3. Click on "Change adapter settings" on the left side of the window.
4. Right-click on your active network connection (Ethernet or Wi-Fi) and select "Properties."
5. In the "Properties" window, select "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" and then click the "Properties" button.
6. Choose the option "Use the following DNS server addresses" and enter the DNS server addresses you want to use. You can use public DNS servers like
Google's (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare's (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1), or your ISP's recommended DNS servers.
7. Optionally, you can also configure IPv6 settings by selecting "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)" and then clicking the "Properties" button.
8. Click "OK" to save your changes.
9. Close the windows and your DNS settings should be updated.
Please note that you might need administrator privileges to make these changes. After updating your DNS settings, your computer will use the specified DNS servers for domain name resolution.
