Hello Russ,
Thank you for your message.
The issue might be occurring due to the Host settings file being somehow corrupted/damaged (perhaps, by some antivirus/firewall software activity). Please try resetting the Host Settings by opening
Windows Registry Editor (press Win+R, then type in
regedit) and deleting the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Usoris\Remote Utilities Host\Please note that this will reset the Host settings, so you will have to set up the password once again.
In case if the solution above did not help and the issue persists, please also try uninstalling the Host completely by following
this guide and then reinstalling it from scratch.
Hope that helps.
