Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 Incident on July 14, 2025
Huh? Did they break the primary/secondary DNS server setup that has been present in all operating systems for decades?

DNS over HTTPS adds a requirement for an additional field - a URL template - and Windows doesn't handle defaulting that correctly in all cases. If you set them manually it works fine.

Nothing, but Windows can automatically use DNS over HTTPS if it recognizes the server, which is the source of the issue the other commenter mentioned.
