Summary

I'm unable to start the internal Live Preview (the Live Preview started when the Enable Experimental Live Preview option is not enabled).

When I try to start it the Live Preview bolt icon on the top right stays in the Live Preview: Connecting… half-yellow half-grey state forever.

If I enable the Enable Experimental Live Preview option Live Preview works correctly — Chrome opens displaying the page and changes are applied in real time.

This happens for the Getting Started project and any other project I open (File, Open Folder…).
No extension is installed.
Live Preview Base URL value is not set in Project Settings.
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file contains no entry.
Chrome's Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed setting is not set.
