Most likely your WebClient service is not running on your local machine. Simply crank it up using the following steps.

1. Go to START >> RUN
2. Type services.msc
3. Locate the WebClient service
4. Open the Properties

1. Start up type to Automatic (otherwise on the next boot you will have this issue again)
2. Click Apply
3. Click Start
4. Click OK
