The main fix for this bug is to simply "restart the computer".

Microsoft says that,

We are working on a resolution and are targeting a Microsoft Catalog only release of an out-of-band update to resolve this issue by early April.” In the meantime, their suggestion is that you restart your Windows 10 PC and hope that the issue gets resolved.

According to Microsoft

“Devices using a manual or auto-configured proxy, especially with a virtual private network (VPN), might show limited or no internet connection status in the Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) in the notification area. This might happen when connected or disconnected to a VPN or after changing the state between the two. Devices with this issue might also have issues reaching the internet using applications that use WinHTTP or WinInet. Examples of apps that might be affected on devices in this state are as follows - Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Office, Office 365, Outlook, Internet Explorer 11, and some version of Microsoft Edge.”
