There is a chance that your PC communicates with the NAS over routable IPv6 addresses assigned by the ISP. For example, if we try to ping our local NAS here, it will print:
ping nas Pinging NAS.local [2001:db8:...] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 2001:db8:...: time=2ms Reply from 2001:db8:...: time=6ms ...If that's the case, please try the latest build. It should disregard local communications over public IPv6 addresses.

Latest Build closes after installation immediately No Chance for testing... Tried uninstalling and installing again. Same behavior of the executable.Can you give me another version? Or check latest build?

Tried new latest build. NAS traffic isn't counted anymore and app crashes no more But download traffic over my VPN (Surfshark) is now counted as Download and as Upload. This doesn't happen with official version 6.2.10. Only with latest build. What's the problem with this? Old problem solved, new problem comes...

In general it's a little tricky with VPN clients. Sometimes their traffic is recorded and sometimes it's not, depending on how a VPN client is implemented and which started first. Essentially a VPN client is a process that captures traffic from other applications, encrypts it and sends it over a tunnel. Monitoring tools like NetWorx can't really distinguish that from regular applications.
