Solved Windows 7- "hosts" file is missing-what to do?

[Souravi785]

The "hosts" file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc is missing. The only files are lmhosts.sam, networks, protocol and services. I tried searching for the "hosts" file but couldn't find it in my pc. What should I do here?

You can just create one with notepad it's only a txt file me have a default one to copy you don't need one normally it's blank so it does nothing
