Currently waiting for #8974 to be implemented (since the current way of hooking filesystems to the UI is a total mess I cannot figure out) along with #15473, this PR is to lay the groundwork for resolving #2407 and will be marked as ready when everything is finished.

Hello @Uraclee I'll be typing the steps that will work on Windows 11 & 10 (and all the way back to Windows 7 & Vista), but if you find my explanation to be un-clear, you can find tutorials online on how to change your DNS Server on Windows, found this video after a quick search, but you can use other tutorials as well.

And you could find tutorials on how to change DNS through PowerShell:

1. a guide to change DNS - The Windows Club
2. An Example on how to reset DNS back to default one - Microsoft Docs That is.. if you know the Interface Index, you can find out by running Get-DnsClientServerAddress in PowerShell running as Admin. (see explanation in Point No. 1)

The steps to change DNS back to default

1. Open up the Start Menu by pressing the Windows Logo on commonly found on the left of Task Bar.
2. type Control Panel in the Search Bar, and press on the first option that come up.
3. change the view into Category View (if it wasn't already).
4. go to Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing Center -> choose the Device that's used to connect to your router / modem (and thereby, the internet).
5. then a window will pop-up, click on the Properties button, then choose Internet Protocol Version 4. (TCP/IPv4) option, and click properties button to see and change its properties.
6. change the DNS option back to Obtain DNS server address automatically, then click OK.
