Apps can't connect to internet after update to Win11

So straight after I've updated to Win11 all of my apps (Adobe CC, Battle.net, Onedrive, Windows Smart Screen, Windows store etc) can't connect to the internet. However, the PC itself is connected and I can use Chrome, Telegram and WhatsApp just fine.
I've tried running all of the troubleshooters, reset my network multiple times, disabled proxy, reinstalled and updated my network adapter drivers, flushed DNS - nothing helped. At this point I'm kinda desperate and one step away from rolling back to Win10 but maybe somebody had come accross the same issue and manage to solve it.

    Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you and I'll be happy to help you out today.

    This problem actually occurs when there is a problem with your internet configuration and driver, kindly follow the steps below and I hope this helps.

    First what we will do is to enable WWAN and WLAN services, these services are essential to run the Wireless and wired connection perfectly.

    • Open Services (Press Windows key + R then type in services.msc then click OK)

    -Look for WLAN Autoconfig and WWAN Autoconfig> Right-Click Properties and set it to automatic (If it's already set to automatic, right-click then click stop then start it again)

    -Restart PC and check

    If the issue persists, run the following command in Command Prompt (Admin). Follow the steps below to do so.

    These sets of commands will reset the internet connection and re-calibrate the internet settings you have.

    Press Windows Key + X.

    Click on Command prompt (Admin).

    Type the following commands, and hit Enter after each command:

    netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled

    netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled

    netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled

    netsh winsock reset and press Enter

    netsh int ip reset and press Enter

    ipconfig /release and press Enter

    ipconfig /renew and press Enter

    ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter

    If the same issue follows the methods below:

    Do clean boot:

    A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type MSConfig and select System Configuration from the results.
    • On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.
    • On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.
    • Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.
    • Close Task Manager.
    • On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.

    Let me know how does it go and I hope that helps.
