Does anybody know how the IPv6 privacy extensions work or rather don't
work in Windows 7.

I read in several places on the web that all I have to do to "unbreak"
Microsoft's implementation of IPv6 privacy extensions is these two commands:

netsh interface ipv6 set global randomizeidentifiers=disabled store=active

netsh interface ipv6 set global randomizeidentifiers=disabled
store=persistent

but that doesn't fix it for me.

I can see new "temporary" IPv6 addresses being assigned to by network
port but stupid brain dead Windows 7 never ever uses them!

Maybe it's waiting until all connections using the other "old" temporary
address(es) are closed? But if so that's stupidly wrong.

Am I really the only person who has noticed?

I think most people will tell you to simply upgrade to Windows 10 at
this point. What are you doing worrying about Windows 7's broken IPv6
implementation, when it's never going to get fixed?

Is Windows 10 any better in this respect?

There's another command in this article.

https://support.binarylane.com.au/support/solutions/articles/1000100517-disable-ipv6-privacy-extension-in-windows

netsh interface ipv6 set global randomizeidentifiers=disabled store=active
netsh interface ipv6 set global randomizeidentifiers=disabled store=persistent

netsh interface ipv6 set privacy state=disabled store=active
netsh interface ipv6 set privacy state=disabled store=persistent

I'm not trying the disable privacy extensions. I'd just rather like them
to work properly, rather than just sort of pretending to work properly
with no effect (generating a new address but then never using it).

There are articles on the web that seem to indicate that Windows 10 is
the same or maybe even worse in this respect :(
