Help! http://127.0.0.1:5000/ - This site cannot be reached

[arnbrhm]

UPDATE! I've read that this DCOM error is common and can often be ignored. I filtered my event viewer and found this event (10016) had been occurring for months and I know that ChangeDetection.io has been working for me during this time. So please ignore my DCOM bit.

My Windows computer running changedetection.io rebooted yesterday to install some updates. When it was done, my changedetection website wouldn't load anymore. When I go to http://127.0.0.1:5000/ I get 'This site cannot be reached' and 'ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED'. So far, I've determined that ChangeDetection.py does not bind to port 5000 but I confirmed that no other process is using port 5000 either. I did find this message in the event viewer (system log) (whenever I run ChangeDetection.py:

Event ID: 10016

Has anyone else experienced this or has an idea what's going on? I tried upgrading to 0.45.25 but the issue remains. Thanks for your help!

So i would say "security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool." is your clue

I agree, but haven't had any luck yet. This guide looked promising but didn't work:

I've updated my original post. DCOM errors have been there for months. I'm back to having no idea. Is there a changedetection log file I can look through? Or what is the process for a complete uninstall and reinstall?
