P.S: I followed this procedure in Windows 8 Pro 64bit edition but this should work for pretty much every available edition of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. Moreover the very same procedure can be used in earlier editions of Windows as well including Windows 7 (32 bit and 64 bit).
- Ensure that your phone is connected via USB and that USB tethering is enabled.
- Go to Device Manager. Locate a device with a yellow exclamation mark shown next to it.
- Right click on that device and select Update Driver.
- Now click on Browse my computer for driver software and hit Next.

- It will then ask you the device type, you need to select Network Adapters. Then for manufacturer select Microsoft (or Microsoft Corporation, whichever is available).
- Now you need to select Remote NDIS Based Internet Sharing Device and click on Next to install the driver (Click Yes if there’s a pop up showing it’s not safe to install this driver).
