Not disabling IPv6, prefer IPv4

There are two ways to do this:

  1. Create a registry entry to prefer IPv4 over IPv6.
  2. Directly modify the IPv6 prefix policies to prefer IPv4 over IPv6.

Method 1: Registry Entry

You will need to reboot for the change to take effect.

  • Login to your computer as an administrator
  • Run the registry editor (regedt32.exe)
  • Add a registry key per the screenshot below then reboot for the change to take effect. To undo this change, simply delete the registry entry, then reboot again.

    Location: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters
    Key: DisabledComponents
    Type: REG_DWORD
    Value: 0x20 DEC: 32
