Step 2 – Open the Windows command prompt by selecting the “Start” menu (round button at bottom left of screen) and entering “cmd” in the search text field box followed by pressing the “enter” key.

Step 3 – At the command prompt, enter “ipconfig /flushdns” followed by pressing the “enter” key. After a moment, Windows will display a message similar to: “Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.” Once the message is displayed, the DNS will be flushed removing all incorrect entries.
