Loved Blue Iris for 5 or 6 days.
(Please note my question mark up in the title. It means I have no definitive proof the problem was due to stunnel; although the timing seems to point that way.)
Then installed stunnel and developed the following problems:
At this point I must explain what really exacerbated my dilemma.
My computer is in my bedroom, inside an the top half of an amwoire cabinet dedicated to this purpose.
My display is a 65" 4k LG TV on HDMI 3 @(3840 x 2160) ,in an adjoining living room on the other side of the bedroom wall. I know this seems overkill but my failing eyesight appreciates it. It connects via a 10' HDMI cable through the adjoining wall.
Once you envision this physical layout, you'll see why wireless keyboard and mouse are absolutely essential.
So what did I do fix the problem?
3 days troubleshooting, testing & verifying the wireless hardware on my wife's laptop. Using a hardwired keyboard in the bedroom to sign on after each of countless reboots, then running to the living room to see the results and to continue with my wireless mouse which still worked. The 3rd day I realized an onscreen mouse was available in Win 10 once it booted up without any keyboard.
Finally, at the end 3 days of suffering, I decided to go for a totally new re-install of Windows 10. But I first saved my download folder to a thumb drive.
I tried to re-install BI5, but it would not let do so because the time had expired. I received a discounted BI5, because I renewed my BI4 service subscription prior to the end of June. I think I should be able to re-install it and I have an email request for help about that in the works but have not yet heard back from them.

Then installed stunnel and developed the following problems:
- Wireless mouse pointer slowed down response and became iffy.
- Wireless keyboard response slowed, then stopped responding altogether.
