In the latest Chrome version there is no proxy settings anymore.

I did manage to launch localhost by using chrome_proxy app instead of the chrome app. In windows10 with a normal chrome configuration it is located in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application

Everything's been working since I think it is one specific case. I hope it could help someone someday.

Cheers

In Chrome, go to Settings > Show advanced settings > Network > Change Proxy setting -> enable the checkbox for "Bypass proxy server for local address". To get to Chrome settings, click the three vertical dots to the extreme upper right of the Chrome browser window.

Solution courtesy of: Localhost not working in chrome and firefox, which while not based on WAMP (but instead Visual Studio 2010), the underlying premise is the same.
