**Issue resolved

Now I run into the following:

root@DESKTOP-MIQQV4H:/mnt/c/users/user/documents/Blockchain/brownie_fund_me# brownie run scripts/deploy.py
Brownie v1.17.2 - Python development framework for Ethereum

    raise ProcessLookupError(

I tried to make an exception in firewall for port 8545 like someone suggested. But to no avail.

What is going wrong here?
