VirtManager Windows 11 networking isn't working for me.

I think so, I'm genuinely clueless about Linux networking but what I do know for certain is that I use NetworkManager not systemd-networkd.

i've spent like the past 3 days trying to sort this i'm completely defeated atp

if you mean a windows VM on virt-manager/KVM, I have a guide to setup virt manager
