Windows JSON profile selection - YARD2 - 2017-01-12
Hello,
I just discovered, that the port 8080 for JSON is closed during Profile selection.
After a logout I can not use JSON (remote) to select a new profile.
Is this a bug or feature ?

It's neither
The problem is that the webserver (which runs port 8080) is disabled by default and you have to enable it manually in the settings. But settings are a per-profile thing so once you logout of a profile those settings aren't valid anymore and it falls back to default settings which means that the webserver is also disabled again.

Thanks for the explanation.
Would it be possible to change this in one of the next versions ?
Perhaps with a new option "Always enable Webserver" ?
