Anything in log.txt file? Have you tried changing your DNS servers to Cloudflare and Google? Tried using a VPN?

Hey,
I've tried the VPN, indeed. NordVPN, tried multiple locations. Didn't work. Changed DNS to Cloudflare, didnt work. Changed DNS to Google, didnt work.
and no log, nada :/

Very odd. Tried deleting your Aurora config folder? C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Cheat Happens\Aurora ?? You can safely nuke this folder and it will be recreated, however you will lose any custom settings you had. Might just rename the folder instead of deleting. Same thing with Aurora. Nuke entire Aurora folder and re-download to a new, separate folder (excluded from AV).

Well that did the trick. Thanks a lot, working like a charm now.
PS: Gonna sound stupid but didn't know my provider DNS was so slow. Gonna keep cloudlfare settings, thanks for the tip.

I'm really glad that worked. BTW, if you go to Settings > Misc in Aurora, there is a button to show you where your settings file is located. I know it would not have helped in this instance but if Aurora ever starts acting funny, it's a good thing to try.
Also, yes, some people do not realize how much of an effect DNS servers can have on your overall Internet speed. You can also try HTTPS OVER DNS which would give you encrypted DNS servers to use.
