Your network can block loopback as a security measure in Windows 10.
-
Open a command prompt as administrator, and run this to exempt Edge from a loopback:
CheckNetIsolation LoopbackExempt -a -n="Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe"
(Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe
is the identifier for the Edge app)
There’s a blog post here giving more detail:
