Renew IP Address using Command Prompt or Windows Command Processor


Open Command Prompt or Windows Command Processor, in Start search bar type cmd and press "Enter".















In Command Prompt type "ipconfig /all" and press "Enter" to display the full TCP/IP configuration for all adapters.










Then, type "ipconfig /release" and press "Enter" to sends a DHCPRELEASE message to the DHCP server to release the current DHCP configuration and discard the IP Address configuration.






Lastly, type "ipconfig /renew" and press "Enter" to renew DHCP configuration for all adapater or for a specific adapter if the Adapter parameter is included.




IP Address successfully renewed.

When you execute "ipconfig /renew" you may receive the following error message: "An error occurred while renewing interface local area connection: The system cannot find the file specified." You may check your firewall software or anti-virus that have network security and the worst is your windows installation is damaged.
