Unable to launch debugging with Javascript debugger Follow

- Webstorm 2022.3.3

- And Webstorm 2023.1 BETA

- Windows 10

Debugging used to work, and since returning to work this week I haven't been able to.

Debug opens Chrome or Edge, but then never loads the page.

In Chrome:

The page says loading, with the localhost:port in the URL, but never does. It just stays on a white screen. No console messages, no network traffic. If I hit stop debugging in Webstorm, Chrome does load the page.

In Edge:

Edge just stays on about:blank, and Webstorm eventually shows the "unable to connect to localhost:port" message. Stopping debugging does not do anything to Edge, it just remains on about:blank.

I have tried adding variations to the args: `--remote-allow-origins=*`, `--remote-allow-origins`, `--disable-web-security` from the other post linked above. None have changed the behaviour at all.

I have deleted the .idea directory to let it regenerate, no change.

When I hit debug the Webstorm log adds:

Webstorm log:

... and then nothing.
