Skyhigh Client Proxy disconnects from the proxy and no longer retries

You see Skyhigh Client Proxy (SCP) unable to connect to proxy and stops retrying. Further analysis shows log messages such as

[ma_app]failed to open registry McAfee\Agent\, error(2), waiting for registry key to be re-established

NetworkManager threads in SCP were being found in hung state while doing a captive portal check

Until on a released version with the fix, customers may:

Create a test policy with access protection disabled to allow the SCP service to restart.
Save the test policy to C:\ProgramData\Skyhigh\SCP\Policy\Temp and back up the previous policy.
On the client system, perform the taskkill command found here (not copied directly as it has advise about frequency of using command): https://success.skyhighsecurity.com/...ndpoint_system
The SCP service will restart.
Remove the test policy and restore the previous policy to enable access protection.
