Cannot establish a connection with the UPM local server process

I ran into the problem where I get the error “Could not establish a connection with the Unity Package Manager local server process” every time I open a project. I then did a fresh install of Windows 10 and immediately installed Unity, but I still get the same error.
I went thru the pinned post and solutions before and after the fresh install, but still no avail.

All relevant files are attached. Would love some help here, thank you

Hello ,

Sorry to see you are having this issue and thanks a lot for providing the logs. You have Unity under a folder that has an apostrophe character “Programma’s”. Unfortunately, we have a bug that is causing the problem you are having, the source is one of the libraries that the Package Manager uses.

A solution is to move the installation not under a folder with the apostrophe, move Unity outside of any folder under your windows profile, for what I can see from the report it is D:\Programma's\Unity\.

We are working on a fix for this, sorry for the inconvenience.

Supi

The given solution worked! I reinstalled Unity to a different folder and the issue was gone. Thank you for the help.
