    ;tldr; open services, restart "network location awareness"

    So I was searching and searching for a fix for this stupid problem that has been roaming the windows base for a few months.
    I gave up and just accepted windows apps would no longer work unless I reboot my PC but as I was looking for windows services that might be been interfering with my project I came across network section in the services. reading the description I notice network location awareness collects and "stores" configuration information so I restarted it maybe it would fix this curse, it had nothing to do with my project, I just humored it. and what do you know it works. I hope it also works for you guys.


    make a script that just does this around 4 am if you like me dont shut down your computer.


    cheers!

    :)
