Have you looked to see if Windows 10 has native support for this device? Just plug in the USB adapter without trying to install anything from Netgear and see what happens.
You could also check that you have the latest drivers for your motherboard. These rarely reach users with all the updates for things like USB and LAN support,
The people who made the PC may not be the best place to look. These all get motherboards from a third party.
