Take a look at the injector functionality. For two programs to exchange data you need the Vnet injector.

Hello Brian,

From your pictures the interface property is blank. This should allow you to select your network interface which is needed even if you are simply communicating on the same PC. Are there any valid options you can select for this property?

Hello Brian,

What network interfaces do you have available on your PC and are they enabled in device manager and connected?

I get this on my Dev PC which points to the network interface.

On my laptop I can select the Wifi interface and then when there is also a cable connected I get the option in the network interface drop down to select that also.

Hi Benj

If i go into device manager I only see my network adapter, but this dose not come up in the network interface drop-down menu
If i click on the network interface drop-down menu in FC it there is no options to choose from (see screenshot below I'm clicked on the Interface). On my laptop its the same dose not show me any networks so really not sure what to do as i have a WiFi connection on the laptop that is working but i can't detect it either.
My only thought is that maybe my copy of flowcode lost some files or something got corrupt when it was downloading?? Is there any way i could get a working copy of the Vnet injector.
