Once again the almighty computer deities have blessed me with a computer issue I cant figure out and once again I turn to their most devout followers for guidance.

 

I have the following network adapters in PowerShell:

6 Intel (R) 82579V....              (set as private)

23 PureVPN                           (set as public)

1 Software Loopback Interface 1

I cant share anything on local network, other computers can ping me, all sharing settings are what they should be, but when I try to share a folder my computer prompts me that I have disabled sharing on public adapters and I need to either enable them or change adapter to private.
As a test I clicked change to private, and it changed my PureVPN adapter to private.
I've tried uninstalling drivers and PureVPN program, I've uninstalled old drivers and done pretty much everything I can think of to fix this, but if I use something like Firefox it seems to use the Intel adapter like its supposed to, the issue only seems to occur with Windows' own programs.

 

Any ideas on how I might fix this?
