Hi Stephen/Jerome,

I managed to recreate the issue and to generate a fix for both 1.1/1.1.1 and 2.0. Attaching it here.

Usage:

Go to the “Tools” Top-left menu bar, and select “Backup & Restore”
Select the applicable file from the attachments for restoration.
Uncheck “Upgrade certified definitions” and press “Restore”
Go to where you defined your data source (Under “Execution” -> ”Data sources”)
Edit the data source and reset the scheme (“vc”). Save and return to data source list
Right-click and select “Acquire Now”

Please let me know how that worked out.

Thanks,

Yaron
