Windows – Installation of Samsung kies fails on the Windows 7 laptop

kieswindows 7

I am trying to install Samsung kies and I am getting below error:

You are not connected to the Internet. Installation cannot proceed. Please check the internet connection and try again.

I tried all the things below:

  1. Run as Administrator
  2. Turn-off windows firewall
  3. Disable anti-virus

If anyone has any solution on this, kindly share with me.

Thanks in advance.

This is often down to having entries in

c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Some may prevent Kies connecting where it needs to in order to work properly. Ideally, only have

127.0.0.1 localhost
