Device Does Not Appear in Device List

I have followed the installation instructions and both the app and desktop app boot like normal.
The device is recognized by ADB, but not by the VCamdroid program.

PC Log:
[SERVER] Initialized on port 6969
[ADB:6969] Failed to start
[ADB:8554] Failed to start
[SERVER] Started

There is no "Bug Icon" in the top corner of the Android app as stated by "Reporting Issues - How to get the logs:"
as such, no Android logs can be provided.

The phone is connected to the front port of the desktop via a male-male USB-C cable that otherwise supports all
ADB and Fastboot functionality. USB Debugging is enabled, and the program is whitelisted to bypass the firewall.

Windows 11 Home, 25H2.
Samsung Galaxy S23, Android version 16.

Yes, I did follow the proper order. as well as trying to swap the order of booting the phone and PC applications to see if it would work. There is no change in functionality or error log regardless.
