Just updated win10, can no longer connect to server. (fixed itself for now?)

[Nikki]

As the title says, I just installed the recent windows 10 update and can no longer connect to the server. I'm not sure whats happening. Nothing is being blocked in my microsoft defender, event viewer gives a kernel based error? I can only assume it has to do with certificates because when I googled the KBw/e update it said some certs will expire in 2026? So I'm not sure what to do about this.

It's having trouble even bringing up the launcher, let alone logging in. I'm failing to connect to patch server.

Edit: I got in for now, but for anyone having issues after the update ima allow this thread to exist for speculation unless the moderation sees fit to lock it. Restarting your PC should be the first option. I'm not sure what "Fixed itself".

There's at least one other person having a similar issue in the Discord. If we figure out whatever the hell happened with Windows this time, we'll post about it in here.

The only things I did was use cmd to clear my caches, restart my modem, and restart my pc. But those things didn't work at first so I'm assuming its windows doing a first time connection/security thing with w/e they did then after it recognized everything it was trying to connect to it said "ok now you may control your PC".
