Local stopped working after running fine yesterday

I looks like this is something that is happening a lot right now but I thought I would send this through incase any thing I had seen might help.

After using LBF for a couple of weeks (and loving it) everything suddenly hung at startup last week. I tried several fixes including reinstalling LBF and VB and doing a system restore (Windows 10 x64) but still no go.

I finally dropped another drive in my computer and did a fresh install of Windows. When I installed LBF I did notice that VB was installed automatically as part of the normal install and remember that this did n’t happen when I did the re-install last week.

Everything worked fine until today. An update request for VB came through this afternoon and I allowed that. When I tried to start Local tonight I got a series of error messages which are in the JPG above. There have been several mentions of VB problems in other posts here so maybe this is the culprit.

Here is the log file.

Experienced the same errors after upgrading. Rebooting the computer took care of the problem.

@mrsam999,

Please try the steps here: How can I forcefully restart the Local by Flywheel VM?
