I had WiFi internet for a couple of weeks. But now I've lost it. When I search for G Mail I get "This site can't be reached."
In Settings>Network & Internet, I see Wifi is "Connected, secured"
I'm using G Mail OK on another PC..

Hello @JGLTX
Thanks for reply.
"Other devices":
Those entries are for hardware for which Windows has not loaded a suitable driver.
Your "HP Pavilion All-In-One PC" is offline, please take pictures of the information I requested and send the pictures to the forum here using smartphone or another computer.
Kind regards

Depressing.
I have tried 2 empty USB drives and am unable to paste sp142005.exe into either one.. The PASTE instruction is always greyed-out. I have tried pasting it into Desktop, Downloads, Documents, OneDrive, and This PC- all unsuccessfully.
Any idea why it will not copy?
