MinimWatch does not reconnect after PC hibernate

MW starts fine; however, if I hibernate the PC and then restart, the MW icon is blue/grey, and MW does not reconnected to MS on the Home Server PC. If I click on refresh, nothing changes. The only cure is to shut MW and then restart.

Anyone with any thoughts? Is this simply a Windows problem - that 'pipes' do not reconnect properly after hibernating a PC?

This problem is related to Windows 8.1. MinimWatch reconnects successfully on Windows 7 after resuming from hibernation, but not on Windows 8.1.

The code to reconnect after network adapter changes is in the ohNet UPnP stack, which MinimWatch uses. It seems there is some incompatibility in this area between Windows 8.1 and ohNet. I'll report this to the ohNet developers.
