Hey guys, maybe someone here can help me since I start losing my mind. Since thursday I cannot use gradle anymore without a reason I can find. I put the error message below that I get whenever I try to do anything with gradle. Any help is greatly appreciated. My gradle version is 6.5, installed with scoop. I reinstalled it multiple times and also tried disabling my firewall without any changes in the behaviour. Removing daemon from the registry due to communication failure.
