How to solve Receive error: 10053 connection was aborted by the software in your host machine for folding@home?
I wanted to follow Nvidia's call to action to donate unused GPU computing power to fight against COVID-19 and installed the Folding@home Client at Version 7.5.1 on a Windows 10 x64 machine.
My logs are full of messages that read:
ERROR:Receive error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
What am I doing wrong and how can I resolve this?
That's the start part of my log:

I am now also seeing errors of the form:
14:31:47:ERROR:WU02:FS00:Exception: Could not get IP address for assign1.foldingathome.org: No such host is known.
Solution 1:
Just wait and let the application idle. At one point, you will get work units.
(Additionally, it may help to restart the application in order to force a try of a download.)
Folding@Home announced via twitter:
Why has my machine not received any work units (WUs)?
We have been overwhelmed with support and donations, so our servers had to suddenly accommodate a large number of returned WUs. We are working on expanding our memory. Please bear with us as we address this surge.(3/8)
I let the application idle for hours, and at one point it took three CPU-bound tasks (one at a time, idling in between). Starting today, it took one GPU-bound job.
I assume the error message relates more to the local webinterface and is of no indication that the application itself is misconfigured.
