IP address conflict
My Dell XPS laptop Win7 computer has been puking up "Windows has detected an IP address conflict" many times/day. Did some research, tried all the recommended fixes (ipconfig release..etc) nothing ...

So this a smartphone using hotspot app? Not a dedicated hotspot hardware device? :h
Not sure why either IPv4/IPv6 would be disabled in WIN 7? It should not be necessary to do so.
WiFi and Bluetooth use different protocols. That doesn't mean if they use the same broadcast frequency, there is no interference causing corruption of the WiFi signal.
As I understand, OP has already run ipconfig to clear cache? I would try connecting using another computer, preferably WIN 7, to see if experiencing the same messages?
If disabling Bluetooth is not fixing the issue, then I would look for updated HTC One firmware to see if it fixes DHCP issue, which may not be correctly assigning IP addresses due to some flaw or corruption?
This would not be an issue when connected to a hotspot using DHCP.

I also read that the IPv4 address space has been fully allocated which is the reason for the expanded IPv6 protocol. So long term I didn't want to be constrained to IPv4.
