Hi there all,

 

After launching PS beta it tries to connect to an computer that I no longer own.

How do I tell it to stop doing this, it's annoying as the pop-up only appears after around roughly 5 minutes fruitlesly attempting to connect to something that's been gone for quite a while! (?), when I've already started working.

 

 

Hope someone can help here.

Thank you!

It's recommended to backup your settings before resetting the preferences.
