This message in windows is really misleading! It has been there for ages and at
the start when I saw it the first time many years ago I thought like a human
that the other end had ACTIVELY analyzed the situation and decided to refuse...

Not so!
This error in Windows pops up when you try to connect to somewhere where there
is no response, nothing else!

So the target app is not running or you have a firewall that does not allow
connections or the address you use is wrong etc.
Normally it has NOTHING to do with the target application refusing something
after analyzing the incoming call as one would think by the message words....

It simply could not be reached.
