title: WampServer & XAMPPserver automatically redirecting http to https (I don't want this)
body: <p>Every <code>http</code> site in my newly installed WampServer 3.1.0 64-bit is automatically redirecting simple <code>index.html</code> files with no <code>.htaccess</code> to the <code>https</code> version of the site.</p>
  
  <p>I can see no <code>.htaccess</code> file in <code>C:\wamp64\www</code> or <code>C:\wamp64\www\example</code>.</p>
  
  <p>If I uninstall WampServer, and install XAMPPserver, the same thing occurs.</p>
  
  <p>Help appreciated.</p>
  
  <p><code>httpd-vhosts.conf:</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;VirtualHost www.superiorit.dev:80&gt;
      ServerAdmin steve.doig@superiorit.com.au
      DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/superiorit"
      ServerName www.superiorit.dev
      ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
      CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
  &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>httpd-ssl.conf:</code> is the standard default file.</p>
  
  <p>The only change I have made to <code>httpd.conf</code> is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Listen 172.18.1.106:80
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I noticed the Chrome icon in the Windows task bar looks different to the normal Chrome icon: <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/amz4Q.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/amz4Q.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>If I load the site in Edge, the redirection does not occur.</p>
