It looks like Nvidea on windows can interfere with jhs: I tried running jhs today, and I got the message: 'Port 65001 already in use by JHS or another service.'
So then I ran netstat -bn to see what was going on (I had to do this from a command line with administrator privileges), and looking through the output, I saw: Proto Local Address Foreign Address State ... [nvstreamsvc.exe] TCP 127.0.0.1:65001 127.0.0.1:49156 ESTABLISHED ... [chrome.exe] TCP 127.0.0.1:49952 127.0.0.1:65001 TIME_WAIT And it looks like nvstreamsvc.exe is intended to support the "Nvidia Shield" game console. I do not have one of those, so I turned off "Game Streaming" in the "NVIDIA GeForce Experience" application, and waited for the port assignment to go away. That wasn't enough, so I then shut down Chrome and all google application. That still wasn't enough, so I rebooted my windows machine. That worked - jhs runs for me now. Sometimes, when I look at the quality of software produced by large teams of professional programmers, I sometimes think that the point of spending all that money on their salaries must be to make things as annoying as possible. I know that that is not completely fair - there's a lot going on. But there's just so much room for improvement that I feel it's important to keep some perspective. People will always find things to complain about (see above for an example of me doing this), and there's always more to do.
