I’ve been getting this ongoing issue installing the Windows version, so I thought I’d wait and see if a later version fixes things.
But here is what happens.
I run the installer (as administrator).
The small dialog processes the install and finishes.
I then get the larger dialog with the ‘Lets Go’ button, when I click that I see a progress control for a brief moment and it closes and that’s it!
Would love to get this going - it works fine on my Mac!
Anyone else experiencing this?
My only thought is that perhaps my security program maybe blocking the install? It is Bitdefender (paid)
It’s almost certainly something preventing your hosts file from being edited.
Either your security software is preventing it (many block access to the hosts file), or perhaps a permissions issue.

ps - see this line from you logs:
error: [main/hosts-helper] Could not update hosts.
I downloaded and installed that, then i re-opened local. It worked for the first time, but after i closed and reopened local again, the program freezes at the “Starting Local Machine…” screen, and nothing happens after that
Can you please provide the local-by-flywheel.log file? You can get to it by opening Local, clicking on the menu in the top-left and then going to “Reveal Local’s Log”
After i did it, and i started local first time, it worked, but after i reopened, it was the same probleme like before. And there were this two error-message:
