EOS Webcam Utility Pro Shuts Down

I have a EOS M50 Mark II.

Since a recent update to the EOS Webcam Utility software, the software seems to shut itself down within 20-30 minutes of me reconnecting my camera to it, thus breaking the wireless connection and giving me the colored bars. Prior to the update this didn't happen. I don't see a way to download an older version of the software. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Also, I've had the camera for about a year. Is it normal that if you don't use the camera for 12 hours or so, that you have to keep reconnecting the WIFI connection to re-establish the connection? It's always been that way for me.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I think I figured it out. With the update, the EOS Webcam was set to turn off after 30 min of no activity. I have no idea why when I am using Streamyard with the camera, that the Utility thinks I am not using it, but that has to be it. It also reset the setting to automatically start when the computer was rebooted, so it looks like all settings reverted to the defaults with the "upgrade". Fingers crossed it's fixed.
