Windows 10 Workstation - localhost vs 'hostname'

New to QlikSense but playing around with it. I saw post about Windows 2016 and so also Windows Workstation 10 not yet supported but see a pattern here where the implimentation completes, but it creates the icons to launch into the qmc or hub incorrectly.

Example:

Workstation name:  foo

Powershell "hostname"  returns "foo"

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file  (vmware services junk... but nothing unusual)

127.0.0.1vmware-localhost
::1      vmware-localhost

resolution "localhost" or hostname

S C:\Users\administrator> ping localhost

Pinging foo [::1] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from ::1: time<1ms

Reply from ::1: time<1ms

Ping statistics for ::1:

    Packets: Sent = 2, Received = 2, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

    Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

Control-C

PS C:\Users\administrator> ping foo

Pinging foo [fe80::1926:84c:5d55:f1a4%21] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from fe80::1926:84c:5d55:f1a4%21: time<1ms

PS C:\Users\administrator>

Basic 3.0.0.0 full installation using local windows 10 workstation admin user to start services

Icons created:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Qlik Sense\

Target:

https://foo/qmc

https://foo/hub/

vs correct target

https://localhost/qmc/

https://localhost/hub/my/work

It just took me a min to rule out the normal firewall rule or service not starting etc.

Figured others ran into this but did not see posting
