Emby server 4.7.2.0 not starting (logs attached)

[Romit 2]

Emby server starts but it closes automatically after running for a couple of seconds. Then only emby tray keeps running on the background. I've already reinstalled emby on top of the existing installation but no luck. Also tried restarting. So I checked the log files and found out that it's creating an identical error message every time I try to run it. Here it is,

So, any possible fix? Thanks.
Edit: I don't think it's because of the new update because it was working perfectly yesterday.

Hi, do you have any security software that might be causing this? Something appears to be blocking the server from binding to the http ports.

Have you tried restarting the host machine?

Could there be a conflict on your custom ports?

Could it be the VPN?

Have you tried changing to default Emby ports or another custom port?

No, I am not using any security softwares.

Restarting didn't fix it. I figured something was wrong with the ports. After switching to default port from the config file, the server started. But it again started to crash after a couple of hours. Other services that require binding to http ports (like qbittorrent web ui) were having the same problem too. So later I reset my internet settings. Everything is working fine now. I don't know why that happened though.

I disabled Hyper-V according to that Stack Overflow thread. Everything is fine so far. I'm going to mark that as solution.

Thanks everyone for helping.
