Hello,
I recently uninstalled this video accelerator from my laptop after which the internet on my browsers stopped working. And not just the browsers but installed applications like dropbox too. However the apps on my start screen like news, finance woek just fine. Could anyone please help me with this issue?

I suspect you download malware. Is it possible to restore the PC to a date and time prior to your download?

I suspect your browsers have added a proxy server or done something to mess with the DHCP settings. So the browsers can't find the proper internet address.

Good luck
