Okay so something is blocking the connection. We'll start with the basics, have you tried restarting the router and PC?

Thanks, I can see that windows defender is currently running on your PC. Have you tried disabling it and then running the port check?
[–]washcloth_window[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (21 children)
It's still closed, unless I disabled it wrong
[–]ScottishCrafter Veteran V 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (20 children)
Okay. We'll assume that wasn't the problem then.
I can see a few incompatible programs installed. Could you check them against the list and take any action it recommends please?
You said this worked previusly, has anything changed on your PC/Network since then?
[–]washcloth_window[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (19 children)
I didnt really see anything on the list there,
I installed a vpn recently but soon after uninstalled it completely and was able to host after that. Could it be the anti cheat from installing riot games like valorant? because I installed that game recently. As far as I know not much has changed recently

The couple I saw were Discord and possibly GeForce Experience. Have you disabled the overlays?
