Hi, I've got an issue, here is my configuration: environment: windows 10 file: "L:/Temp/file.html" Local directory: "L:/Temp" Localhost URL: "localhost" when I open "http://localhost/file.html" I have an error ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. I don't understand, I tried to configure the firewall but without success
