Something (Windows 10 maybe) deletes system files and stops responding

    Hi there!

    I seem to have found the solution to my issue. Yesterday before I started monitoring the network traffic with the app you had suggested as a last ditch effort I reinstalled my network adapter driver suite, which in my case was killer networking. Since I know this company to have quite finicky drivers I just haven't updated their software for quite some time as everything was working fine. So I downloaded their last update from the beginning of December from my other computer and reinstalled from a flash drive. I rebooted, fired up the network traffic monitoring app and reconnected to the internet. To my suprise a minute after minute passed and nothing bad happened, no suspicious traffic no windows files deletion, no crash... I started browsing firefox, chrome, played some online games. Today I made a backup followed by a complete restore and here I am typing from my main computer that was giving me so much trouble.

    Apparently it was killer networking driver suite that was the culprit. But I still cannot fathom out why it became suddenly buggy on the 1st of January 2020 and what is even more mind-boggling is its capability to somehow delete half of my windows 10 installation every time I connected to internet. I guess it has only quickened my decision to replace my network adapter with wifi 6 compatible intel ax200 m.2 card since I'm going to replace my current router with recently bought tp-link ax6000 one.

    Anyway, I want to thank you all kind people who offered help and I'm sending my greeting to you all from my home country of Poland!

    Hmm, strange indeed. Killer seems an appropriate name...
