Can you stop NR, restart it, and copy/paste the log here. The log may give us a clue what is happening

Sorry been doing a remote session with my grandsons.

Currently your flow is not importable. [EDIT: I fixed the flow but please [read this thread](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-share-code-or-flow-json/506) ]

What happens if you do the following?

Zenofmud  
Thanks for this information  
Sorry about the inconvenience with appending the flow  
I will try ,if that is possible, your advice about that

Solution with clicking the dashboard icon en the other icon, gives the dashboard.  
For now my question has a solution.  
THANKS

When you have done that and see the dashboard, what URL does it show in the browser?

What do you see if you manually enter  
[http://127.0.0.1:1880/ui](http://127.0.0.1:1880/ui)  
or  
[http://localhost:1880/ui](http://localhost:1880/ui)

It’s starting to sound if there’s something on your system, whether in the hosts file or by an application that is rewriting the meaning of “localhost” on your system. I deliberately stopped gaining more windows knowledge a number of years ago, so my knowledge is outdated and you’re better off getting help from others here, but that’s an option I would suggest figuring out.

As @afelix suggests it looks as if there is something wrong with your Windows network setup. localhost and 127.0.0.1 should mean exactly the same thing, but you will need someone who knows about Windows to help further.
