Hmmm,
Is no one else seeing this issue? I have seen no replies from nlnetlabs or anyone else. There must be a reason why things are failing? Puzzle by the lack of response.

I now need to understand why Unbound randomly fails to resolve names and causes various processes on my system to work incorrectly. I hope the unbound users list allows attachments I have tried to add a zip file GetRootHints.zip which contains all the data to cause the issue. It contains a short PowerShell script just to obtain named.root from: https://www.internic.net/domain/named.root Examples of what happens when it fails and also when it works. The unbound log file for both working and failing - verbosity 4 I have also included the Unbound configuration file details So if anyone can advise why things are going wrong and how to correct them if indeed I can by changing the configuration. It would also be useful to know if this example fails on other systems. The zip file can also be found on MSOneDrive here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!As73rPtzISrUzQ_Cgu81TC4xZRsE?e=BMHmDN Thanks Ray
