Hi Ben! Thank you very much for your answer. You just get the link here: Help! My Local site cannot establish a connection to WordPress.org I have also tried to turn off protection (Kaspersky Internet Security). Then, Defender, which has been switched off, will pop up and will block, but I rejec…

Well, at least we know that it has something to do with the network.
