WSS: The time limit for the operation has been reached - Error 12002

Support

Hi,

I know the issue is older and has obviously been resolved. I'm posting my problem here anyway, because it's pretty much my problem too.

I'm using Windows 11 23H2 and mp3tag 3.24 (64 bit). I can't connect to any database (Discogs, MusicBrainz) and get the error code

12002: 12002: The time limit for the operation has been reached.

I am not using a VPN connection and I have checked all firewall settings regarding mp3tag. The problem does not always occur. Sometimes it works. However, I cannot recognize a pattern. I have tried restarting mp3tag completely, as well as restarting the computer itself. Without any noticeable improvement.

I hope you can help me.

Best regards
Endeavour
