By default windows dns servers (meaning windows servers with the DNS role added)

point to the root servers so you don't have to set the forwarders and it regularly updates its root hints file

Unless you configure a zone. I run MS DNS at home and if you configure a forward lookup zone (like I have for my LAN, universe.local) and don't configure forwarders, it will return an NXDOMAIN result for any domain that isn't universe.local.

You just need to check the root hints list
I have an MS dns server at home as well and didn't set any forwards and just rechecked the root hints

and internal dns for my website works aswell as resolving external

and I have reverce and forward zones but not forwarders

You're doing something wrong, then.
