VST Connect Pro 4.0.40 maintenance update released

Good afternoon,

I recently updated cubase to the latest version of 9.5 pro I could find and installed VST performer on another computer on a different network. Both current versions. When I try to connect to a friend ( other laptop) I get this message “Sorry, connection failed. Make sure both sides use the same up to date version.”
I tried getting the VST Connect Pro demo as I assumed it would be the latest and I had just downloaded Performer so that would be as well. But had the same result.
I have the Cubase 10.5 demo now and will give that a shot. Maybe VST connect SE in 10.5 is the true “latest version”

Anyone else had this issue?

Thanks a lot!!!
