A connection disappeared from PC + Laptop can no longer connect to PC

Support level: Free or trial
Two problems happened at exactly the same time on my PC

1) Out of the blue, my PC lost a connection to view my Partner's PC.
I was able to add that back in, but it was strange how that happened.

At the same time, my Laptop could no longer connect to my PC.
I tried resetting the password, and also made sure the ID was correct.
I even tried deleting the connection from my Laptop to my PC, and then add it back in, but it won't connect. I then tried to add a connection from my Partner's PC to my PC, and that wouldn't ever connect either.

The thing both problems have in common is that they are issues related just to my PC - not my Partner's PC or my Laptop.

I didn't want to uninstall and re-install RU on my PC, because then I would have to add all my connections back in, and also re-set the connection from the Laptop and Partner's PC to my PC.

I realized that it didn't do any good to go to 'Default connection properties' on my PC. I finally realized you have to go to the host pc and change it there.

I didn't see anything about this in the manual.

Also, if it doesn't help to change the settings on my local viewer PC, why do they even have that as an option? I tried so many changes on my pc and it never seemed to do anything.

Thanks

... oh and I want my local task bar to always be visible

... or do I have to reboot my local PC every time I config the view mode? Because it seemed like no matter what settings I chose - the remote screen always looked the same - with scroll bars to see everything.

deleting config_4.xml did work.

BUT... now my view settings are gone.

I want it back to where there were bars on the sides if necessary so that I didn't have to use scroll bars. I want to see the whole remote pc screen all the time.

I've tried changing the view mode, but none of the options worked.
I tried checking and unchecking "constrain proportions" and that didn't work either.

What is the best combination of settings to fix this?

Thank you!!!

... although Viewer was working fine on the problem PC until I tried to do a remote file transfer session. That's when it went bad, and then after that I could never even open Viewer again at all.

I can't open RU anymore. I get error.

1) I tried rebooting, but that didn't work
2) I tried uninstalling and re-installing Viewer and that didn't help
3) It was working fine on latest version of RU, but then it just stopped working.

Simple Upgrade fails - blocked by Bitdefender

I'm thinking this might also be related to why the Simple Update fails too.

"You don't have permissions"
Anytime I try to download either the exe or msi file, it fails as it says I don't have permissions. I think it's an issue of the download not being certified with Microsoft?

I never have this problem with any other files, and I know I don't have any restrictions. I'm an IT and have tried trouble shooters, not having restrictions on the UAC of my Windows user, etc.

I've tried 3 browsers and that doesn't help.

I'm on Windows 10
