[16:16:46] Fetching: Game schedule for 2019-04-18 from NHL.tv error message. I have tried the go-mlbam-hosts.exe app, when I use it I add the host entries and it says it's succesful, but I still get an error. I also have tried adding every file/folder that the app is associated with to my windows defender exclusion list but still nothing works.
