NCSI test won't resolve ipv4

Behaviour

I get the error Error getting the IPv4 address of dns.msftncsi.com when doing the NCSI test

Steps to reproduce this issue

  1. Open WindowsSpyBlocker and do NCSI test

Expected behaviour

The DNS should resolve the hostname

Actual behaviour

I get an error error messages for both ipv4 and ipv6 when testing NCSI. The Debian and Firefox servers test correctly. When I go to https://www.msftconnecttest.com/connecttest.txt in a browser I get:

Our services aren't available right now

We're working to restore all services as soon as possible. Please check back soon. 0RQSgYQAAAACY3eV/a0VeRZJMnDSQcqibQVNIRURHRTEyMTYARWRnZQ==_

When I go to http://www.msftncsi.com/ncsi.txt though I can successfully see the text file there.

Rules used

  1. data/firewall/spy.txt

Configuration

Country (ex. United-States) : United States

Operating system (ex. Windows 10 Pro 64 bits) : Windows 11

I don't know if that message is just standard or if they are really are having problems on their end. Why do they have two NCSI servers now? When I turn my Adguard on it works, but I imagine that's just because the local DNS is accepting everything.
