STATUS_CONNECTION_ABORTED

The local transport aborted the connection

These statuses describe transport endpoint and connection state. For STATUS_CONNECTION_ABORTED, they can appear below higher-level file sharing, DFS, redirector, RPC, or networking code before the error is translated to Win32 or Winsock form.

This is an abrupt local-side termination. It can be caused by cancellation, local policy, resource pressure, adapter loss, or a protocol stack decision.

For STATUS_CONNECTION_ABORTED, for diagnostics, capture the endpoint address, address family, connection object, local and remote close/reset events, timeout, route, ICMP condition when available, and the higher-level component that issued the transport request.

What to inspect

  • Check local cancellation and timeout paths.
  • Look for adapter reset or service stop around the same time.
  • Distinguish local abort from remote reset.
