Solution
(Admin rights needed) Paste the following line to your services file located at: "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc"
sapms<SID> 36<InstanceNumber>/tcp
Example: if your SID is ECC and your Instance number is 00 - the line looks like the following one:
sapmsECC 3600/tcp
(NN = your Instance Number /System Number)
Be advised, the Performer Suite (PS) needs to be restarted to load in any system changes you did.
Example: You adjusted your services file or pasted new LIB RFC files into your System32 folder -> Restart your PS.
If you don't restart the PS, it could happen to fail to connect successfully, even if your system parameter is now correct.
