0 tecknot Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Hi Glenn and welcome to the Cakewalk forums. When you open Cakewalk, do you see a toast message in the lower right corner? There should be one regarding an available update with two option, one of them being download update. Bandlab is phasing out the need to use Bandlab Assistant for updates. Not sure what's going on with using the menus to check for updates. I'm not getting the error. Kind regards, tecknot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 scook Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Starting with CbB 2020.09 there is no reason to use BA to update CbB. There is an update option on the CbB help menu. See http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation?product=Cakewalk&language=3&help=NewFeatures.027.html Keep in mind Windows 7 is not supported.

0 Byron Dickens Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Windows 7 is not supported. Windows 7 is what, 12 years old? Windows 11 is coming out now! Edited August 25, 2021 by bdickens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Glenn Kleesh Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 Thanks everyone for your help and comments ,Iv been using cakewalk for a long time in fact since it very first started With the error code generated its the TLS 1and 2 that is the problem. Probably just download direct from now on ,this never ever happened in the past I guess there's always something nothing ever runs smooth .

0 msmcleod Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 To update your TLS to 1.2, install this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/update-to-enable-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-as-default-secure-protocols-in-winhttp-in-windows-c4bd73d2-31d7-761e-0178-11268bb10392 Note that you may already have the update, but it's just not enabled. If this is the case, you just need to install this: https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/6/5/0658B1A7-6D2E-474F-BC2C-D69E5B9E9A68/MicrosoftEasyFix51044.msi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
