Basically i just upgraded my windows from 7 to 10, and got the "timed out while connecting to buttler"

but the thing is after the upgrade everything works perfectly on the pc, except itch.

it's stuck at "finalizing installation" phase

I can't copy-paste the error code, so sorry if you are displeased by the screenshot.
E:pretty sure the upgrade is irrelevant here, since it has happened before but it always resolved itself somehow. Just thought that i'd mention that.

E(2): it fixed itself.... guess it's a perpetual problem with Itch.io desktop app....
