Hello,

After manipulating a PC, I had to uninstall the network card and reinstall it...
After doing that, I realized that I should have saved its IP address.

My question is: is there any way to recover the old IP address?

Thank you in advance.

    Hello,
    If you are not in DHCP, it means that your PC had a static IP.
    If you needed a static IP, it's certainly for a good reason, such as file sharing, or connection authorization on a network by MAC address, or who knows what else.
    In any case, you may need to look into that, namely on the other PCs on your network that might have accessed your computer through sharing, or on your router if it was a security issue, ...
