Hey @rob11521, Welcome to the community!

Can you please provide your local-by-flywheel.log file? See this Community Forum post:  
[How do I retrieve Local’s log file?](https://localbyflywheel.com/community/t/how-do-i-retrieve-locals-log-file/3720) for instructions on how to do so.

Since Local isn’t opening you can find the logs at `~/Library/Logs/local-by-flywheel.log`

There might be more information about what Local is having issues within there!
