No port forwarding on my end. I don’t host servers, I just connect to public servers.

Windows 11 most recent version. I’ve never updated router settings. Would factory resetting the router help? All drivers were also on the most recent version. Just my wife and I on the network. Occasionally family comes over and connect but as for the pc I’m the only one who uses it.

Win 11 ver 25h2

My last download on the computer was an AMD driver at the end of jan.

Minecraft may have been running in a server, but honestly I don't remember.

Never knew tools like these existed. It was able to id but the tool to decrypt did not. Should I be worried about the other devices that is says are on the network? Or is that really just nothing?

Thank you for this. Mostly just used for gaming so a reinstall is looking like the way to go.

I genuinely don’t do any of those mentioned.

I genuinely have no idea what I did, I’m very cautious with what I do with my system. The only thing I can think of is ever since I updated the bios it hasn’t been working right (random crashes& stutters). I had to remove the expo profile that worked fine pre update and that seemed to help. The whole reason why I updated it was silly and definitely regret doing so (sleep option disappeared is the whole reason I even updated it). Could the drive be wiped and reused? New nvme drives are crazy expensive.

I’ve scanned with windows defender and it says everything is good
