Microsoft recently released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25951 to the Canary channel. According to the discovery of the whistleblower Xeno, Microsoft quietly deleted some P2P (peer-to-peer network) related services in this version.
According to reports, Microsoft has removed several DLL files related to peer-to-peer networking, such as those used for distributed routing and peer-to-peer services, from the System32 folder of the build.
Xeno noted that along with the deletion of a dozen such files, three services also disappeared:
Peer Name Resolution Protocol Peer Name Resolution Protocol
Peer Networking Grouping Peer Networking Grouping
Peer Networking Identity Manager Peer Networking Identity ManagerOn inquiry, it is found that these services are quite old and have a history of more than 20 years. For example, the Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRP) originated in the Windows XP era as a solution to some of the shortcomings of DNS.
Of course, the Canary channel of Windows 11 is only a version used to test new features, so these changes may not necessarily appear in the final official version.
