Error when connecting

HAve an issue connecting to one esxi host after upgrading from esxi 6 to 6.7,
Checked Firewall, prereqs etc but just cannot connect to this host no matter what. I can connect to another host from the same place I have Python installed. If anyone has any ideas they are most welcome!

Below is what is returned when trying to connect via command prompt
