Hi @edrress!
Yes you should be getting a second prompt after that one that gives you the option to click Yes and allow Local to proceed.
We have a Windows Troubleshooting guide below that goes over some common items worth checking. For example, ensure that Local is running as an administrator, that there are no security blockers, and that Local has access to update the Hosts file.
Yea , right
It was working very well, but suddenly second prompt stop showing
I tried everything but nothing worked and don’t know really what is the problem
I’m working now with Router Mode : Localhost
The most common culprits are going to be something like security or permissions. Did you review all of the items in the guide above? Including checking the pop up notifications?
Yea everything but still the same
but I noticed that the app itself “Local“ isn’t in Windows notifications apps list
I’ll try to Uninstall it and reinstall again, Shall I backup my current sites?
I Uninstalled Local , and reinstall it and still have the same problem
i recently noticed this message too
Warning ! missing hosts entry. Thissite may be inaccessible
i check hosts file is unlocked
Is this a personal device @edrress? Or one issued by an employer?
Does it have plenty of disk space?
Missing Hosts Entry generally means Local is still missing a permission or is being blocked by security on the device. Is there any other security or antivirus running? Are you running the application as an administrator?
Its Personal device
Free space is ok
I’ve tried both as administrator and normal
I’m using Avast Antivirus
Have you tried disabling Avast or seeing if you can allow programs through it?
Yea , tried to disable and added to whitelist too
sorry for disturbance, I think there no way to solve it 
It’s difficult to narrow down any further but it still seems like something on your device isn’t playing nicely. I have a Windows 11 environment to test where it works okay there.
Do you perhaps have another device you could check and see if it works on?
for now no
i noticed that Local Program not in windows notification app list , is that normal ?
You could try checking over your notification settings to review the configuration. If you’re not familiar, this video might help walk you through things:
