When I connect to a web page, some do open, but these do not open( yahoo, google, google search, youtube, and facebook. What do I do?

After I did the Windows 10 Update, my computer started acting weird... Well it already was acting weird. 

When I tried to log on to a web page it always said, 'ERR_Connection_Closed' or 'The Webpage is unavailable'

I have tried Yahoo, Google, google search, YouTube(YouTube is my life), and Facebook, but not one of them works. They don't even work on Edge.

I tried going to other websites and they worked. BestBuy, Battle.net, Steam, Spotify, and a bunch of others worked. So if my internet works, why are the pages not working?

After working with my computer a bit I got Google to work, but it stopped working again.

One more thing. When I type in a URL that works, it always says 'about:blank'

What do I have to do to fix this problem?

I had same issue on my PC : some sites (google, facebook, ...) KO with all possible browsers (ie, edge, chrome, safari, firefox) while other sites were OK (fi bing)

I could fix the issue on my PC by disabling ipv6

I followed this procedure :

And after a boot, all websites were accessible with all browsers; no negative side effect for the time being.

Hope it can help ...
