CORS Error (Windows 10 x64) #72

Closed BlueSialia closed 4 years ago

BlueSialia commented 4 years ago

The webpage (https://sungshon.github.io/PimpMyStremio/loader/?port=7777&protocol=http&host=127.0.0.1) says "Error while starting PimpMyStremio".

The Javascript console has a CORS error: Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://127.0.0.1:7777/loading-api. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed).

The PowerShell log is clean:

PS D:\Desktop> .\PimpMyStremio.exe --verbose

This error is caused by the browser add-on HTTPS Everywhere. A very famous add-on. Disabling it fixes the issue.

(I apparently rushed when creating this issue, at least now there is a record for future users)
