What is the exact error message?
The "ping" requires a valid/reachable IP address (or server name with
DNS running), and a functioning network. Do you have these?

Of course. I have been doing this for years. Like I say, this just started
a few days ago. Thus, I believe, maybe a service got stopped.

Ping is not a service. It's just a program that probes the network.
Are you able to access the local network,or internet, via another
program, e.g. Windows Explorer and/or Internet Explorer? Is the network
working?
Have your network administrators recently changed the network firewalls
to disable use of ping to the internet or internally?
Could be any of a number of things. I can't speculate further.

You pillock, ping is in no such way, a program, but simply a command line
used in a program!

You're just as wrong as ever. Ping.exe is a program, you'll find it (as
ping.exe) under %windir%/system32/ping.exe. Err, you do know what a .exe
file is, don't you? You really should engage brain before using fingers.

Why are you off topic, and where has this topic ever arisen?

Oh dear!
Try opening it on its own, you twit! It runs from a command line only! You do know how .exes work, right?

They work any way they have been programmed .. winword.exe is a windows
program, ping.exe is a dos program. Or are you now going to try to
redefine 'program' in a vain attempt to make black look like white?
=Some= command lines are build in to command.com, or cmd.exe, and could
arguable be defined as 'not programs'. Ping.exe most definitely is a
program, and has been for a long time.
Oh yeah, <plonk>, while I remember
