"The specified service does not exist as an installed service."

[Andrea]

My network connection icon has a red X and when I’d mouse over it, it show
the error, "Connection status: Unknown The specified service does not exist
as an installed service."
When I open Network and Sharing center, it normally load but instead of the
image of the pc and the globe there is:
"The specified service does not exist as an installed service."
I try everything..please help me,
Thanks,

There are 2 error in the start up:
-Event ID 15016 — HTTP Service Authentication
-Event ID 3095 - NETLOGON (This computer is configured as a member of a
workgroup, not as a member of a domain)
I use Vista Home premium.
Thank you..

Are you connecting to a domain network? Also this search result may help.
Please post back with the result.

I'm connecting with notebook to my home WLAN. I have a modem\router connected
with ethernet cable to the desktop pc. But the problem persists also in
public network.
The problem begins after about 1 months that I used my notebook.
Today I'm also unable to turn on Network discovery (same error:"The
specified service does not exist as an installed service.") in the Network
and Sharing center.
Thank you

I am having an identical issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

I resolved the two errors (15016 and 3095), but the Network & sharing center
has the same problem.
