So long story short, I messed up and ran a program that made vmware my network adapter. (I have no clue how) I UN installed vmware but now I can't connect to my router that's plugged into my pc. Wi-Fi works fine. It's just my pc. I've tried sfc /scannow. Doing something in the registry. And switching to my secondary bios. So far 0 progress. Any suggestions?

Have you looked at your network adaptors? Check that you have removed/disabled the VMWare-applicable 'adaptors' that were installed and try the ethernet again.

Is there any particular reason why the wifi isn't sufficient for you?

A windows reinstall always does the trick!

But in the interest of saving OP he time and stress of backing up and reinstalling everything again, I'd say that's the ultimate last option.
