Thanks for trying to help as this issue had frustrated me for years. I'm not sure of anything, but like most people here, I stopped using antivirus scanners (e.g., Avast) years ago when Windows Defender got better. Now I just use the Windows default. While I know Winnat is who is reserving the ports, I'm assuming a Hyper-V related app (like Docker) is commanding Winnat to reserve ports on bootup. But I don't have Docker. And I can't even spell Hyper-V. But "something" is telling Winnat to reserve 1400 ports randomly on boot. The main reason I never tracked it down was that nothing was using the ports so I couldn't figure out what the problem was aiming in that manner. The other reason I never tracked it down before was that a reboot fixed it. But now I realize a reboot simply moved the 1400 reserved ports to a different random set. That randomness also explains why sometimes I had to reboot twice. One reason for posting this information, other than you help anyone with the same problem, is to see if anyone else has random ports excluded. When people run this command, do they get two lines or more of output? C:\> netsh int ipv4 add excludedportrange protocol=tcp startport=55500 numberofports=101
