Windows 10: TCP Connections are no longer getting reset on process termination

Some time after 1809 (I just upgraded to 1903 to be sure) TCP connections stopped getting dropped when I reset a process. In the past, if I simply stopped my app the TCP connection would get reset. I then found that secondary processes would be holding the port and I'd have to kill them explicitly.

Now I can't kill the dead processes even when TCPVIEW or PROCEXP show that they are dead. The ports are no longer available. I tried killing the apps on the other end of the connection but that didn't work either.


What is going on?


PS: Logging off does reset.

Hi
Ashita,

There are a lot of possible reasons why your internet connection keeps on disrupting. It is possible that your
drivers are outdated, TCP/IP
needs to be reset/reconfigure, or the issue is within your internet connection itself. We suggest that you perform these
methods of troubleshooting and let us know if you notice any changes:
