Recently installed PlexPy on my Windows 10 PC and it’s worked beautifully for the last week. Now it displays …

**ACTIVITY  
There was an error communicating with your Plex Server.**

… and in my logs…

2018-01-24 21:49:17 WARNING Failed to access uri endpoint /status/sessions with error timed out

… any idea what’s happened ? Ran CCleaner across the PC last night before this happened, could just be a coincidence ?
