JustDave,I am not using the latest version of windows as it it is a older version of Windows Server 2012.The version that works is V1.32, but when it updates to V2.22 it reports that the Fing service could not start. There are no icons running in the Task tray and it will not open, so that is why I reported it as failing on Windows Server 2012 R2 Build 9600. When v2.22 installs, it reports Fing Agent Service has stopped working.A splash messgebox appears with the followingContact support

To resolve this on Windows servers:
- Fing Desktop needs to have WLAN Service installed manually. Procedure to install WLAN Drivers: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/hh994698%28v%3Dws.11%29
- Then Fing Desktop will need to be re-installed
Once completed, this should resolve your issue.
