I am getting MANY emails EVERY day, in regards to the Netgear log blocking the below site. How do I add this site to the safe list to stop getting tons of email alerts?! I have an AX9 RAX70 Nighthawk...

Ok, I figured this out! I had site blocking on in my router settings based on certain keywords. I totally disabled the site blocking function, I stopped getting the site blocked notifications. This site that was blocked completely has to do with the Microsoft store app in my Windows 11. In my router, I looked up the two assigned ip addresses with the issues. They were my desktop PC and my Microsoft Surface Pro. I opened the Microsoft store app on both, and saw that an update was stuck on each device (both different product updates, this can happen with any one of them). When I quit the download/update attempt and then restarted the update attempts, I got the error log notice via email from my router! So after temporarily turning off the site block, I could finish the Microsoft store downloads/updates. I then enabled my site blocking again and no more notices for now. I will know what to do next time this happens. I have a daughter, so I have certain keywords that may be on websites blocked and I will continue to use this feature. At least I can identify which device, and check the Microsoft store app for "stuck" downloads. Hope this helps some people.

Do you have Armor, SPC or any filtering enabled on the router?
Is the device at .33 IP address a PC or some device that needs access to this site?
What FW version is loaded on the router?

I do not pay for the armor subscription, so I don't have that.
The ip that ends in .33 is my main computer, that I am responding to you on currently.
My firmware is up to date, the latest "V1.0.15.146"

Any other filtering or features enabled like Smart Parental Controls?
Does the PC get any traffic from this one site? Or is this a service site or web page?
Is there a problem accessing this site?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

I do not have smart parental controls, that is another pay for service. I am thinking it may be my microsoft outlook, but what am I going to do, not check my email (lol)? The modem is a spectrum modem (Hitron Technologies, Inc. "EN2251") with wireless gateway and router functions disabled. I have not done a from scratch setup since last FW update.

Some people have suggested this is the windows built in app, the microsoft store. I looked at it and "windows notepad" will not start downloading and it sees an update for it. I have stopped the update, then restarted and I believe I get the netgear log warning. I stopped the download, and uninstalled this app. I use notepad++ anyways. Let's see if this helps!
