That happens here too in Win10/Win11 using your code. It looks like Microsoft altered the COM object for you not to be able to do a GetNetwork or GetCategory on the connection object, but that seems odd since it basically renders the object pointless.
P.S. some powershell code doesn't seem to be able to access the GetNetwork function either. $networkListManager = [Activator]::CreateInstance([Type]::GetTypeFromCLSID([Guid]"{DCB00C01-570F-4A9B-8D69-199FDBA5723B}")) $connections = $networkListManager.GetNetworkConnections() $connections |foreach { $_.GetNetwork() } Element not found.
