Hi @ashif571

There is an error in your log repeating like this:

{"thread":"main","class":"Process","process":"phpCgi","level":"warn","message":"PHP Warning:  'C:\\Windows\\SYSTEM32\\VCRUNTIME140.dll' 14.13 is not compatible with this PHP build linked with 14.29 in Unknown on line 0","timestamp":"2023-05-30T08:31:45.579Z"}

I thought these vcr files install automatically when you download the latest version? Anyway Thanks for the help @Nick-B . Appreciate it.
