After updating to latest version of SC, am unable to connect to TopStep account. Message Log states:

CTS FIX socket (6) | Connect event error. Windows error code 10013: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. | 2017-10-17 08:05:51 *

Was able to connect just prior to update. Please advise

This is going to be caused by a firewall on your computer. Refer to this section about this:
Data/Trading Service Connection and Symbol Issues: 1.2. Network Communication or Server Problem

It is not a problem with the new version at all. It is your firewall causing the problem.
