I was using SideStore without any issues before. After forgetting to refresh my apps, I deleted and reinstalled SideStore. Since then, I am encountering this AFC / invalid pairing error when trying to install apps.

ERROR:
minimuxer.MinimuxerError 27
Error Description
The operation couldn’t be completed. AFC was unable to manage files on the device. This usually means an invalid pairing.

Failure Reason
AFC was unable to manage files on the device. This usually means an invalid pairing.

Refresh ansiette

LocalDev VPN
Iphone 12 (IOS 26.4.1)
SideStore Stable latest version on iLoader
