Cannot Validate source server and "Next" button in "Adjust Settings" section will not work

This is my first time using Windows Admin Center. I'm excited by it's potential, but am running into some early problems. I want to migrate my share files from 2008 Server R1 to Windows 2019 Datacenter. My orchestrator is also on a 2019 Datacenter. Everything checks out until the last validation, which fails with " Error HRESULT_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component". I see the workaround is to go back to "Adjust settings" and click box for "override transfer validation". However, when i check this box, or make any other changes on this section, I press the "Next" button and it never progresses to next screen. In other words it never saves my preferences-therefore I cannot skip the last validation. I have tried multiple browsers, I have cleared the cache, I have done all updates inside the Server and Windows Admin Center. Would really appreciate if anyone else has come across this and found a solution.

Hello,

This seems like an issue that was patched by Microsoft some time ago, could you check that the system is updated an patch applied?

Best regards,

Yeah i had come across that article. I tried to install KB4580390 and it said it was not for my OS. I assume because I am on Windows Datacetner 2019.
