Issue Summary
Local has been working fine for me this week until today, and I’m not sure what changed. Today, when I tried pushing my work up to our dev server for this site on wpengine, it started giving me the error “Local couldn’t load the file list!”.
When I try pulling, all the files come up so it seems to work there… I just can’t push. I downloaded and installed an update for Local today, so it might be related to that? Otherwise, I’m not sure what would’ve changed between yesterday and today.
And everything else still seems to work - I can still run sites and access them like always.

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.
