>'do want in disconnected mode' question.
on client, make sure necessary whs related services(named “windows server …”) running.

compare status of services before , after problem occurred, check see if there difference. or, try manually re-start services.

> seems happen whenever gets updated - windows update, steam, office, whatever software, 75% of time update whacks connector software.
there 3rd party software, such software management tool, anti-virus program, , etc. try disable them (if any) temporarily , check result. 

since connector re-installation works, , problem related new installation(update), try confirm if new installation break connector/related installation files.
