Dynamsoft plans to add a feature that automatically detects local service connectivity and permission status. If the connection is blocked, users will be prompted with a message and directed to this FAQ page.

A notice is added to the service installation dialog to inform users that a connection failure may be caused either by the service not being installed or by local network access being denied, as these two cases cannot be reliably distinguished.
