Question Can't download anything anymore

CPU: Ryzen 3600x
GPU: Sapphire RX580 8GB
RAM: [2x4GB3200MHz] + [2x8GB3200MHz]
MOBO: Aorus B450 Elite
PSU: Corsair VS650W

Today I have had a lot of troubles installing literally anything. Wanted to download new graphics drivers? Can't do it. Wanted to check for any new Windows patch or update? Can't do it. Wanted to listen some music, so you try installing Spotify. Can't download it.
Can't literally do anything. I just have a giant piece of metal on my deskboard.
I've tried installing Windows 10 again and it doesn't work (btw, I only installed Windows and I choose to keep the other partion with the games).
I've tried switching proxys, dns s, turning off firewall but nothing seems to work.
I really don't know what to do. I really need my pc to be working because I so use it both for school and games.
I'm asking for your grace 🥺 .

so you can get online just not downloading or installing?

It sorta downloads things (the download fails multiple times but in the end it does eventually do it) but most of the times when I open the installer itself, it gives various errors depending on the file I'm trying to download.

test with taking the 2x4gb ram kit out.
or run memory test

It always worked before but I'll give it a try. Windows drives me crazy when this stuff happens.

I've tried but still doesn't work. I can't even download the Radeon Adrenaline software...

Every time that I try to download something it just says "Some web services are not available at the moment" or something like that for anything that I try to download.

malware scan your system?
or do a fresh os install

A week ago or so, I downloaded a torrent and got a s**** ton of viruses. I've run a 15hrs Anti-Malware Byte scan and got rid of everything. I've done a fresh os install of W10 yesterday but still nothing. I guess I'm gonna try erasing even the other partion of the disk (where I store games).

Did you mention whether you can get on websites and browse about as normal?

You obviously didn’t do a clean install which requires you to format the entire drive and reinstall windows clean. If you had this wouldn’t be an issue. Stay off torrent sites and stop stealing software that’s your problem. These issues aren’t going away until you stop your behavior and stop stealing software or movies or whatever you’re stealing

are the windows/games legit or you torrent them?

I'm able to browse normally

On the other partition I had games which I legally bought on Steam and on the main partition I had an original Windows licence

It just finished installing an absolute clean os and still doesn't work. I have other devices that work perfectly but this pc won't even download Chrome anymore.

I don't even know why but connecting my pc to the internet through tethering on my mobile seems to work

I used to connect my pc though an old laptop that has built-in wifi but it doen't seem to work anymore. It always worked but now I really don't seem to find what is the problem. I was planning to buy an wi-fi card but the coronavirus situation f* me over.

PS: The laptop can perfectly browse and download stuff from the internet.
