Hi everyone,
I installed Valet on Windows 10 following this guide: https://github.com/cretueusebiu/valet-windows
However I can't seem to get my top level domain for Valet to be found. I have tried changing Valet's TLD to .app, .valet, .test, .dev as TLD's but none of them work. I ping foo.valet and it responds with not found. Have set up using Acrylic DNS on Windows 10, flushed the DNS on Chrome, flushed the DNS on Windows, restarted the machine, restarted the network adapter, but to no avail. Valet, PHP, Composer, are all running. It's just when I try to load in Chrome, I get "ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED" and ping results in "ping request could not find host".
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

first, you need to make sure that port 80 and 9001 not currently in use. Port 9001 will be used by AcrylicDNS as a proxy. At first I had trouble make it work because it turned out that the port was already being used by an Intel service. I didn't know which one, so I turned everything off via msconfig.
To make the .test domain work without changing the hosts file, all you need to do is change the IP and DNS settings on the virtual network device on your computer to
127.0.0.1
. This virtual network device is used as a Loopback, so even if you are not connected to the internet, you can still use the domain .testThis network device is in addition to a LAN card and a Wifi Adapter. You can add it by running Hardawe Wizard
Start
+R
on the keyboardhdwwiz
then pressEnter
, if there is a warning select YesFor LAN Cards and Wifi Adapters, you can leave the IP settings but point the DNS to
127.0.0.1
. For the Loopback Adapter you can set it like thisimage below uses hyper-v, but it's the same if using loopback
hope this helps, please forgive my bad english.
