    Description

      New Windows Update:
      Windows 10 update 1809

      Will make Windows reserve a range of ports, including port 50000.

      Research Results Thursday 8 Jul 2021:
      This happens on windows machines where Hyper-V is installed.
      Hyper-V is used to run virtual machines and reserves a huge number of ports, randomly, changing with each startup.
      Using the package portscanner the ports do not appear as being used, but trying to use them gives the "code": "ECONNREFUSED".

      Possible solutions to investigate:

      • Use another port scanning package and see if it has into consideration the reserved ports in windows (https://www.npmjs.com/package/get-port )
      • Sacrifice one request after setting the ports and see if it returns ECONNREFUSED
      • Ask the user to run the cmd commands to reserve ports to our app
