QGroundControl connectivity issues between CubePilot Orange Plus (or Herelink controller) and laptop

Hello there,

I was running QGC on my laptop connected via USB tethering to my Herelink controller fine, until today. The QGC on my laptop would not connect to the controller at all. Nor to the CubeOrange directly with the same USB cable. The only solution was to uninstall and reinstall QGC on the laptop. Is there a debug file we can use to determine what is happening? Perhaps someone went through this before?

Thank you for your feedback,

Marty
