hi @fighunn
Do you have some security software open such as a firewall?
You can try to close the software, or reinstall D5

I figured it might be setting related so I restored my pc back to windows 10 and reset my settings. Not sure if an update might have changed something which caused it to not work after recently working in the application just three days prior, but after going back to 10 it was working again then I did another update back to windows 11 and still seems to be working again so all’s good for now thanks for your reply.
