Good Morning,
I have searched for this issue but have not found anything like it. I am sure it must be a problem on my end but I am not sure what has changed to cause it. I just upgraded my installation to the newest 3.00 today in the hopes of fixing it but I still get the following error;
Failed to authenticate using OAuth (1) \> 0:SSL error: WINHTTP\_CALLBACK\_STATUS\_FLAG\_SECURITY\_CHANNEL\_ERROR internal error.
I am not sure what SSL channel it is using that worked before but doesn't work today.
Windows 7 Professional 32 bit fully patched
Any assistance is GREATLY appreciated!!!!

My apologies......I didn't find this one from one hour ago. I will follow the thread but the expiration of Windows 7 now seems to make some sense but the fact that Discogs would even really need to revoke a cert for that seems.....not nice.....does MS have stake in Discogs???? Might make some upgrade to 10 just for the fact......

Your Windows 7 key should activate Windows 10 for free, google for it.
Btw: continue using windows 7 connected to the internet would be stupid - in my opinion.
world/internet is evil, except that forum surely 🙂

Win7 (and Win8) should work again with Discogs, see here

> In the forum of Mediamonkey, someone wrote. Discogs had updated the ciphers across the board to their servers - including the API services - which is what was causing the problems. They have reverted the changes to the API services, which has restored functionality for the tagger in MM4 on Windows 7 (& Windows 8 presumably) You can view the threads here... [https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/809378](https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/809378) And here... [https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/809470](https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/809470) I assume, Mp3tag should work again…
