Hello,

“NcsiUwpApp” is the Network Connectivity Status Indicator Universal Windows Platform App. It runs in the background, monitors network connection status, displays the connectivity icon on the taskbar, and periodically verifies network functionality.

You don't need to worry about it. NcsiUwpApp is not a virus or malware. It is a legitimate part of Windows and does not pose any threat to your device or data.

The "NcsiUwpApp" is related to the Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) in Windows. It's a part of the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) and is used by Windows to check your internet connection status. This app doesn't directly connect to the internet but rather helps determine whether your device is properly connected to a network and can reach the internet. It's responsible for displaying connectivity status on the system tray, showing a "no internet" icon if there's a connection issue.
