Windscribe usage discrepancy
Sound like you are on the free plan and as far as I know, P2P is disabled on their free servers now. I don't want to worry you but maybe the traffic didn't go through Windscribe. You should bind your VPN to your torrent client to make sure it doesn't leak.

VPN stopped working after updating the Windows 10 app from v2.22.6-beta to v2.22.9
Тоже самое, но на оптике. Интересно, что Cloudflare Warp пашет каким-то образом, а вот Windscribe сегодня не работает вообще ни на одном протоколе, сколько бы я не тыкал конфигурацию. Пока пришлось вернуться на V2Ray...

Exit node working but only for 1-2 minutes after connection

How do i fix this credential failure and wireguard keys limit?
I've been using windscribe for years and this is a constant issue for me as well all of a sudden. No issues for years and now every time I use it I get this error after only a couple minutes of inactivity.

Can someone please explain back ups to me?
OneDrive is a good experience once you wrangle it properly. Unfortunately, it's forced onto you with the worst default settings possible, so much wrangling is required.

DNS leak when using Control D Utility App
Seeing the same when using either the Windscribe or Control D DNS leak tests, giving a mix of DNS servers related to both WS and CD and claiming DNS exposed / leaked E.g. when connected to The 6 it lists the DNS servers of both tzulo and NetActuate

IPv6-only connections
Even I’m waiting for their IPv6 update because my ISP only supports that now and currently when I try to connect Windscribe, it just fails.

Keep getting "Proxy Failure" on Firefox Extension
+1... Something has been borked recently, because it has never acted up before. Now it fails every 20 minute or so. From debug log: It spams auth_required -> returning creds x50 times. Then it fails with [background] [INFO ] [auth_required ] - Auth count exceeded AUTH_ERROR_COUNT_MAX of 50. Smokewall is
