### What issue or error are you experiencing?

My live link is not working. It only pops up the 404 page. I’ve tried rebooting and different web browsers. I am on windows 10.

### What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc

### System Details

### Local Logs

Attach your Local Logs here ([Help Doc - Retrieving Local’s Log](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/retrieving-locals-log-file/))

_ **Security Reminder** _  
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hi @itserika18

Do you have any antivirus, security, or firewall applications that could be blocking Local?  
More details about troubleshooting this here: [Router Mode](https://localwp.com/help-docs/advanced/router-mode/)

Are you running other developer applications simultaneously? That could also cause similar issues. Apps like MAMP, XAMPP, or Docker for example.

As a workaround if you can’t get Live Links working you could use a Free Demo site at Flywheel to be able to view and share it. These are free for 14 days: [Demo Site](https://getflywheel.com/wordpress-support/what-is-a-demo-site/)
