Lots of Ethernet connections (using WiFi)

Hi,

As the title suggests whenever I turn on my pc there is a flood of Ethernet connections that appear despite me using WiFi only. There is also a lot of TAP-Windows Adapter V9s that appear in device management, although as far as I’m aware they would be for a VPN which I do not have.

It also takes a long time for me to be actually able to use the internet properly. It connects to the WiFi right away but when I try to use it everything just keeps spinning and then all the different Ethernet connections appear.

I’m at a total loss as to why this is happening, if it is impacting my connection and also how to stop it because any time I uninstall any of the TAPs they just reappear after a reboot.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
