Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked debug log at https://pastebin.com/pQymHGm4 and reproduce the listed steps with Kodi, the Netflix addon, and a VPN server. Verify the reported Windows environment and installation source, then compare playback with and without the VPN. Done means identifying the VPN-related failure and confirming that selecting a film or series starts playback.
