I've been having problems with my ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) ever since last week's update on Windows 10. It all started when I was unable to start my Mobile Hotspot, neither through the Action Center, nor through the oldfashioned way by netsh commands on Command Prompt. After a restart, I realized that ICS was not enabled for my ethernet connection and trying to enable it gives me the "An error occurred while internet connection sharing was being enabled" error message.

Normally internet connections can be shared by home users by using ICS (internet Connection Sharing) or by making an Ad-hoc network to allow other devices to share a single connection. Other alternative methods require connecting multiple computers by using Ethernet cables connected to the modem. While you can use a Wi-Fi router for connecting an Android or Symbian phone to the internet, your router might not be able to support too many devices. MHotSpot is a portable application which simplifies the process of sharing your wireless network connection with other computers and devices such as Android, Symbian phones, printers and Tablet PC. MHotSpot does not have any complex settings and can share an available wireless network at your home or office.

While setting up a WiFi hotspot & sharing your active internet connection in Windows you may have faced an error that displays Error 765: internet sharing cannot be enabled. A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing.
