Hi Larry,

Have you come across a restriction re access to localhost in the latest version of Windows 10? Prior to the latest version, my XAMPP/localhost scripts were all running perfectly but since the 'upgrade' to the latest version of Windows 10, now there is no access to localhost at all, not even to phpinfo.php. I have tried several different browsers and they all exhibit the same restriction so it seems nothing to do with the browser.

I have Googled extensively and it seems that it is a known 'feature' of the latest incarnation of Windows 10 with lots of suggestions on how to deal with the restriction but so far anyway, all the 'fixes' that I have tried are to no avail.

Are you aware of this? If so, do you have any advice on how to fix this?

Thanks, Necuima

Hi Larry,

I did some more investigating and found that Apache no longer starts automatically even though the auto-starts are set for MariaDB and the server. If you manually start them, then everything is OK.

I will continue investigating.

Cheers from Oz.
