Issues with 64bit software
Ever since i've upgraded to windows 10 (fresh install), I've had issues with running 64 bit versions of software. I'm not sure i can describe the problem accurately, but it's internet/network related. When using git, it will not relsolve hostnames or ip addresses (and i'm pretty sure you don't relsolve ip addresses, but that's the error it gives). Can use the ping command from git fine, just can't clone, push or pull. When using VLC, i can't stream videos from youtube, it comes up with an error saying the input cannot be opened. When running java applications if i use the 64 bit environment, i can't connect to anything that requires authentication (such as online minecraft servers, can connect to servers running in offline mode just fine though). I only run into these problems when using the 64bit versions of the applications, the 32bit versions work just fine. Has anyone encountered something like this before, and can point me in the right direction?
Just to add a little more info, the 64 bit versions worked just fine on windows 7 and 8.1. - which is what peeves me off the most.
EDIT: The only things i can think of, is that it there is a problem with using MinGW-w64 to compile binaries to be used on windows 10, or it's a problem with windows 10
