I have a local nas server/drive I've been using for years and I can access it with File Explorer fine but for some reason now I cannot access the local internal admin java web page on it any more. I can see where the java page wants to pop out but is denied for some reason even though it is set to Allow in Exceptions.

After rebooting my popup finally reappeared and I was able to access my NAS. Thank you for the response. I will keep these tips for future ref since I have no idea why the issue occurred in the first place and it may reoccur. -Thanks again!
