    All working after installing the latest Windows Security update https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/defenderupdates

    In case it won`t help try to reinstall the emulator as well with latest version.

    It appears my issue has been solved after uninstalling the security update that came with the recent cumulative update. After uninstalling, this is my security update version:User's image Unfortunately, this looks like a temporary fix because security fixes are required for us.

    Hi Arkadii Hryshko,
    Please try the steps below. If these don’t resolve the issue, kindly share your observations for further investigation

    1. Windows Update → Check for updates → install anything pending → reboot.
    2. If it still fails, disable HTTP/2 (run as Administrator), then reboot:
    reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters" /v EnableHttp2Tls /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
    reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters" /v EnableHttp2Cleartext /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
    
    1. Verify: open https://localhost:8081/_explorer/index.html.
