Hi I just installed Local on windows 7… I created a wordpress site, but it wont display keeps saying **_This site can’t be reached_** And each time I create or delete a site, it keeps saying **_Local by Flywheel is requesting administrative privileges to modify your /etc/hosts file_** I did check the hosts file, it has this: _## Local by Flywheel - Start ##_ _192.168.95.100 theme01.dev #Local Site_ _## Local by Flywheel - End ##_ I have uninstalled antivirus softwares, turned off firewalls, I even tried installing older versions, 1.4.5 i think it was… but still thesame been looking for an answer for like 3 days now 🙂 Thanks [local-by-flywheel.log](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/lwpforums/original/2X/6/6ffc1045e5aaeb2df440ca711f6222196e903eba.log) (200.3 KB) ---

Hi Jesse, Have you tried accessing the site in another browser? Currently there’s an issue with VirtualBox sites not loading in Internet Explorer without a work around. ---

Does this happen with every site or only one specific site? ---

It seems like the router may be failing to start. Here’s how you can get the log for the router on Windows: 1. Open Cmd.exe 2. Run `@FOR /f "tokens=*" %i IN ('"%LocalAppData%\Programs\local-by-flywheel\resources\extraResources\virtual-machine\vendor\docker\windows\docker-machine.exe" env local-by-flywheel') DO @%i` 3. Run `%LocalAppData%\Programs\local-by-flywheel\resources\extraResources\virtual-machine\vendor\docker\windows\docker.exe ps -a | findstr "nginx -g"` and note the hash at the beginning of the line. It should look something like `48ed0650a35d` 4. Run `%LocalAppData%\Programs\local-by-flywheel\resources\extraResources\virtual-machine\vendor\docker\windows\docker.exe logs ROUTER_HASH` … Replace `ROUTER_HASH` with the value from above. Then, copy any output you see. ---

Awesome, thank you! There wasn’t anything in the error log so it looks like the router is good. Can you try running the following in Cmd.exe and then copying the result? ```auto ping theme01.dev ``` ---
