    Will tag @holger1405 to help you further with this.

    Thank you for your help. I'm currently working through one or two other solutions that have been given to me by other people.

    @WarDragon72345 

    It makes very little sense to troubleshot if you are changing settings suggested by others. 

    I simply don't know what the status quo inside your system is if you do.

    So I would suggest that you let me know if this other solutions don't work.

    Tag me with @holger1405
