Or

2)

Go to check the jtagserver.exe (same path as in the generate log) whether it is enabled in the firewall for all network types, see below:

jtagserver firewall

You may have to click on the 'Change settings' button with a shield icon on it before the firewall rules are editable - they are locked against being changed by software.

You might need to have the admin to do this.

Thanks,
