In order to root out one of the more common issues, we'll need to see your hosts file. Here's the steps to getting this file.

1) Press the Win + R key on your keyboard.

2) Paste the following into the prompt that opens: notepad %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

3) Use Ctrl+A to select everything in the file, then Ctrl+C into the textbox to post to this thread.

But can we talk on Discord I find it simpler?

You're welcome to join the Forge discord, but that doesn't change what you need to do. You'll receive the same help. Simply copy the contents of the open file here.
