What is the file path to find out the current IP Addresses stored within a Windows 10 machine? I’m using Autopsy for practice purposes
 

Solution
You can find them in the registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
You'll have to figure out which GUID is the correct interface.

I said I’m using Autopsy, I’ve done a forensic image of the Windows 10 machine but want to know (if there is) a file path location of the current IP Addresses

If you need to know the interface name you can tie the interface GUID to the servicename value under here HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards\NetworkCard#

The other post should be CurrentControlSet and not necessarily ControlSet001.

You have to look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Select Value : Current to see which control set is the active one.
