someone on the rainmeter discord fixed the same problem like this, give it a shot and see if that's also your problem.

No, still crashes

[keifufu]

tried a simple restart? anything else using the port 8974?

[naxim92]

I don't know what the reason but somehow after a time it started working properly. My suggestion playing with firewall was helpful, thnx

[keifufu]
