Otherwise, legal liability will be held. Microsoft loopback adapter (Microsoft loopback Nic) is similar to a virtual Nic. It can be installed on a Windows system without a NIC or used to test multiple host environments. Its functions are obvious. For Windows XP, 2003, and earlier systems, you only need to add hardware in the control panel, and then follow the system prompts to install it step by step. However, the steps for installing the device after using the Add hardware wizard on Widnows 7 as usual cannot be continued: this is strange, isn't Widnows 7 going backwards, do I no longer support loopback adapter or manually add devices? In fact, we can manually add them using the unzip hdwwiz.exe command. The steps are as follows: 1. Run the "vhdwwiz" command and press Enter. All operations require administrator privileges!
2. Select "install hardware I manually selected from the list (advanced)" according to the operating system wizard )". 3. In the hardware list, select "network adapter ".
4. Select the Microsoft vendor and select Microsoft loopback adapter in the network adapter list on the right. Next, follow the Wizard to complete the installation. Now, the back-to-loop network card in Windows 7 has been installed, and you can test it with an IP address!
