Issue installing NextDNS on Windows 11
I don't know if this is just me or is NextDNS not working on Windows 11 anymore but I get this error when trying to install the client. Here are the installation logs. NextDNS shows in the systray and says it's enabled but is not sending anything to NextDNS as I checked the logs on my.nextdns.io. Another problem is that it isn't showing in Network adapters under Device Manager and not showing in the Network Connections in the Control Panel as a TAP adapter.
