Describe the problem

I installed netbird on Win10 and later upgraded to Win11 to try and fix it.
Netbird connects both with CLI and UI, but dashboard doesn't work.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install netbird and connect
  2. Go tohttps://app.netbird.io/
  3. Netbird not detected and asks to install it

Expected behavior

Have access to the dashboard

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

Additional context

I tried installing on WSL2 and running in mirrored networking, host windows doesn't detect netbird and if i run firefox/brave i get the same issue as on Windows.
Adblockers and tracker blockers disabled, affects Edge as well as Brave, Firefox on WSL2 doesn't pick it up as well.

Hello @dertruffel , This issue is due to restricted permissions for regular users. Access to the dashboard is limited, meaning regular users will not be able to view any peers.

To remove this restriction, you can log in with an admin account, or if you're not an admin, you can ask the admin to navigate to Settings > Permissions and disable the Restrict dashboard for regular users option
