Emby will not finish installing, stalls on http://localhost:8096/web/wizardstart.html

[skinny1962 2]

New Emby install on a used machine. Emby will not finish installing. It gets to the Microsoft Edge webpage trying to load http://localhost:8096/web/wizardstart.html and cannot reach this page.  I am not able to access the log files. I have disabled all the plugins, cleared the history in the browser, and everything else I can think of to no avail.

 

Any ideas? Help!!

 

Thank you in advance.

Do you use ESET?

[skinny1962 2]

What is ESET? I am not to computer savy. I disabled my Avast antivirus software to no avail.

 

Looks like Emby is loading but when it goes to load the web browser wizardstart it stalls and will not finish. So there for I can not setup Emby or access anything.

 

Thank you in advance.

 Have your tried a different browser?

[skinny1962 2]

Yes, I have tried Chrome. Didn't work either. Now the computer is locking up at about 12 minutes in and showing DPC Watchdog Violation and rebooting. Always something!!

Should I uninstall Avast Anivirus?

Problem solved. After working on this for two days found out it was my Avast Antivirus. Just disabling it did not work. I had to uninstall it. Emby works great now. Thank you for your help HappytoPlay!
