 Hi Paul,

Do you mean v2.37 (that's the latest)?  If so, I had the same issue on one
of our servers.  Downgrading to v2.28 fixed it, restarting the new version
fixed it multiple times for just the 1st cycle, I got it working in a
powershell admin prompt (running for at least an hour), then closed it and
restarted the service on the new version, and it's been fine since then!
I'm not touching it now!  ;-)

Clutching at straws a little bit, but I wonder if it might be related to
not much memory being available.  On the first run, it's using less memory
so it works...  (We have a process hogging almost all the RAM on that
server.)

BTW, the empty sections I was getting are:

[netstat]
[ports]
[ipconfig]
[route]

Kind regards,

SebA
