How can I find the file where the hosts list is stored and edit it?

TweakMASTER Knowledge Base article KB0086

If you would like to search your hosts list, do this:

  • Go to Find (or Search) on the Start Menu and type in "hosts" (without the quotes)
  • It should find several files there including one called Hosts with no extension. Drag that into an open notepad window (or any text editor)
  • Use Edit | Find and type in the domain you are looking for... and you can edit the entry manually or delete it completely.
  • Do not delete the hosts file if it has entries other than those in the TweakMASTER section... this could cause problems with your Internet connection.
