      If you are running locally
      Try running without your firewall being enabled t test if the firewall is blocking mpi.
      Also, are you running with vpn ?

      Hi Geo.
      Thank you for your reply
      I tried the firewall and made sure mpi is an allowed app, it didn't work.
      .Yes, I am running with a VPN since my license is from my University and because of COVID I have to connect via VPN off-campus to activate my license.
      Is there any way to fix it with the VPN connection?
      Cheers Amir
