This error is only happening locally. Cache and cookies have been cleared... everything works fine for my IT guy. Going to WP-Admin to try and refresh the permalinks or something doesn't work either.. admin login page comes up 404..? Could it be htaccess or?

looks like you may have installed your Wordpress site into one of those two directories instead of the root folder. You can check by putting your domain / and list one of those folders there. Or if you FTP into your site you can open those up and see which one of those have your Wordpress files.
 
Try a third device form a separate connection (I.E, your cell phone using mobile data). If it comes up fine, then it's likely a DNS or browser caching issue on your PC. But if it still shows the same error, then there's likely a problem with your WP installation.

Is this a brand new site/domain set up within the past 24 hours, or a transfer that happened within the past 24 hours?
 
I'll check those suggestions and get back... one other detail is that (my IT guy is in Hyderabad) but DNS near me updated successfully. I successfully logged into Wordpress too....... I upload Updraft plus with Migrator.. all good..... then, from the site I migrating away from... I sent a backup from the old site to the new site over the web and then when I refresh the tab on the new site - only then did it have an issue..... anomaly?
 
Solved. Server nodes are on opposite sides of the planet so it just took some time for the fresh install that my IT guy did in Hyderabad to fully complete.
