Major issue. Cant play online because of it. Looked at previous issues on games such as https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater/issues/288 Forza Horizon 4 not working but the methods provided were lackluster and did not work.

How do you know that this is the result of the script? I see little reason why it would affect IPv6 connectivity. See Teredo. It removing Xbox components from Windows (as default) will almost certainly cause issues playing Xbox games...

Running this script as is without seeing what it removes and considering the consequences of doing so is of course going to cause issues.

Either use the UI and select specific apps or remove the Xbox related apps from the blacklist if you do suspect the script.

Some of the Xbox files are needed to play Microsoft games. (Identity provider for example) Only remove: xboxapp (you still need it to sign in though, but you can remove it after that), xboxgameoverlay, xboxgamingoverlay, xboxspeechtotextoverlay
