Windows not connecting to most websites.
Go to solution
Solved by yogurt245,
Welp I figured out the issue. I installed a firewall on my computer about a month ago called portmaster. It's open source and everyone was giving it glowing reviews. So I decided to try it out for a day and didn't like it, so I though I disabled it. Well, Windows had the bright idea of silently re-enabling it without any notifications. After doing an upgrade install fix, the icon showed up on hidden icon bar. I completely uninstalled it and everything is working now.
I scanned my system with both defender and Trend Micro and nothing came up, so a Windows update probably screwed with a setting.
