Q. I change the binding order of adapters in Windows 10/Windows Server 2016 but the changes to not save. How do I change the order?
A. In Windows 10/Windows Server 2016 there are no components that still use the binding order therefore any changes are not saved. If you wish to change the priority of a specific network card you can achieve this with PowerShell:
Open an elevated PowerShell windows
List the adapters in your machine
netstat -rnChange the metric using Get-NetIPInterface to see metrics then change with Set-NetIPInterface, for example:
Set-NetIPInterface -InterfaceIndex -InterfaceMetric
