New windows install, no local access

"(Browser) can’t establish a connection to the server at {public IP censored - TDP}:8096.

Why is the browser responding with the public IP (which I censored)?  "Localhost" should not resolve to your public IP.

And when you say you cannot access localhost "anywhere", are you referring to your other devices?  Or specifically from the same PC running Jellyfin?
