windows 10 service issues

Post by Dizzee »

I have yawcam installed on a windows 10 pc
I have changed the default ports as they seemed isp blocked? after trying everything to open the default ports, changing the ports seemed to work fine.

If I run yawcam normally, it works fine

however if I run as a service I get nothing

I can see the service is running in services.msc and when I try start up yawcam manually it informs me another instance is currently running.

any ideas?

When Yawcam starts as a service, it uses the same settings, which means the same ports, but the process is different, so it could be blocked by your firewall. You should manually add those ports to your allowed list on your firewall.
