Windows 10: localhost

In my internet statistics appear several localhost conections that i can not explain. How can i remove them?

:)

 

Access localhost from another computer

Localhost, as the name suggests, points at the localhost. Use the hostname or IP from your computer on their PC's. ie something in the 192.168.x.x or 10.0.0.x range most likely.

 

Failed to connect to localhost

Hi Mike,

One of the possible reasons why you were unable to connect to the localhost
is because of the configuration set within the LAN (Local Area Network). To better assist you, we need the answers to the following questions:

• Are you using a computer connected to a secured network or
  domain?
• Have you tried resetting your router to default?

In the meantime, we suggest running the Network troubleshooter
to find and fix issues with your internet connection. To do this, please follow the steps below:

• In the search box on the taskbar, type Network troubleshooter, and then select Identify and repair network problems from the list of results.
• Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

If that doesn’t fix your connection problem, try these things:

• Reset the TCP/IP stack
• Release the IP address
• Renew the IP address
• Flush and reset the DNS client resolver cache

To run these networking commands in a command prompt window

• In the search box on the taskbar, type Command prompt, press and hold (or right-click) Command prompt, and then select Run as administrator > Yes.
• At the command prompt, run the following commands in the listed order, and then check to see if that fixes your connection problem:
  • Type netsh winsock reset and press Enter.
  • Type netsh int ip reset and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /release and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /renew and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.

We are looking forward to your response.

 

Lost localhost access after Windows 10 upgrade

Hi,

I used to run web apps on localhost (on a dedicated port) and it works well on Windows 8.1.

After the upgrade to Windows 10, I cannot access to the apps via any kind of browsers, I always get a timeout error...

localhost access (direct or on a port) seems blocked.

I found some known causes on forums but nothing changes:

• disabled IIS
• tried to find World Wide Web Publishing Service: not running on my PC
• allowed Localhost Loopback in Edge

Does anyone meet the same issue?

Thanks
