Some problem editing the host file

I just installed Local and ran into this problem:

I have found the log file, it can be reached here, but unless you got the password from me by pm or similar, you won’t be able to access it, since I am not sure whether it contains personal information:

Hope you know how to help me!

Already tried:

  • Starting as admin
  • Reinstalling

Hi Pascal,

Are you running anti-virus or an internet security suite of some type? It may be locking your hosts file.

I was searching for a solution so desperately all day, and never checked if Kaspersky was blocking the hosts file. Of course it was.

Thank you a lot.

(I am a bit embarassed to having opened this inquiry.) :slight_smile:

Greetings!

No worries, glad you sorted it! :smiley:

Do I have to close the conversation somehow or does it close automagically? :diamond_shape_with_a_dot_inside:

I marked your reply as the solution. We keep most threads open in case someone else runs into the same issue. :slight_smile:
