> I've further investigated this issue and it seems that all users who are receiving the error message are using Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista. The CDN used by Discogs recently moved to dropping support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 so that [Discogs itself also moved](https://www.discogs.com/de/forum/thread/750365#7445909) on to the more recent and more secure TLS 1.2 standard for HTTPS connections. Unfortunately, TLS 1.2 is not supported by Windows XP SP3 and Windows Vista, so that connections to Discogs won't work there. Kind regards – Florian

According to [Mp3tag Development Build Status](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/mp3tag-development-build-status/455) this should be fixed for Vista too. I'm not sure, if this is really true for Vista (out of MS-Support since 11. April 2017).
