### Solution: Nep+ App does not open (only 0.0.4)&#x20;

Nep+ App requires access to the local host to connect robots, code, and things together. There exists a possibility that the *antivirus* or *Firewall* is blocking the application.

The fastest but not recommended solution is to turn off the *antivirus* or the *Microsoft* Defender *Firewall* when using Nep+ App.

A recommended solution is to add Nep+ App as an exception to your *antivirus.*

An example of how to do this action for Avast is described in: <https://support.avast.com/en-us/article/antivirus-firewall-application-rules/#pc>

### Solution: Nep+ App does not close (solved in version 0.0.5)

To close any NEP+ interface, you need to select **Project/Exit** and then press **agree**
