How to switch your DNS to Google DNS or Cloudflare DNS on Windows 10?

So, this is the scenario. You are using some local ISP which has its own DNS server fulfilling your DNS requests but to speed things up and not rely upon a DNS server which is updated less frequently.

Step 1: Right click the Network Icon in your task bar.
