Went to open my Local test website today noticed 5 apps needed updating. Elementor was one of them, however my Local recommended backing up before updating, which I did using Updraft Plus. When that had completed and at that point I need to go out so closed everything down, apps and PC.
On return I again tried to open my Local Test website, there followed a series of Errors,‘RBC/Local/ Error establishing a data base connection’
I have tried looking through the Help pages, but I do not know where to start even trying to fix this error. Google searches gives more confusion. SO, I am hoping one of you kind souls can point me in the right direction.
I cannot get past the opening screen, tried all options I could find. I am an OAP and a real newbie at this so please bear this in mind.
My grateful thanks for any help you can offer.

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.
