The favicon files are missing - localhost

I am running Drupal 7.56 locally on XAMPP. I have installed the module, and updated my .htaccess and settings.php files. However the status report is showing that the module cannot find the files:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/apple-touch-icon.png"/>
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/favicon-32x32.png"/>
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="16x16" href="/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/favicon-16x16.png"/>
<link rel="manifest" href="/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/manifest.json"/>
<link rel="mask-icon" href="/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/safari-pinned-tab.svg" color="#8a0e54"/>

However I can navigate to the files directly through the browser for instance: http://localhost/mysitename/sites/default/files/favicons/favicon-32x32.png

It is expected that this will happen on a local install, or is there a mistake i'm making?
