    Hi!

    Recently I installed Windows 10, and shortly after it I also ran DestroyWindowsSpying, ShutUp10, and the AntiBeacon. However, my Store and related apps can't connect to the net now, meaning I can't see the weather via the live-tile on the start menu, or the news, and can't open the store at all. I'd like for all of these to function.

    It's clearly a hosts problem as making the hosts file clear (no addresses) they all work, but it seems I can't figure out which addresses are specifically necessary in my case.

    Domains currently blocked: https://pastebin.com/raw/5Da5pMMa

    Does anyone have an idea on which ones I should remove from the list?

    Thanks!

    EDIT: Got the store and weather apps working. News app is semi-funcional, no images appear: https://i.imgur.com/t3sx5nP.png
