System updates are not installed

  1. The latest system updates must be installed on the machine for digital certificates to work correctly.
  2. Make sure that the time is set correctly on the machine and is synchronized with the network.

Certificate problem

  1. The issue occurs because certificate authority may not be available in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities of Windows (GlobalSign in that case). Please, check if it is available:

    The following certificate must be added to the specified path by the System Administrator.
    GlobalSign certificates can be downloaded from the official website:
    https://support.globalsign.com/customer/portal/articles/1426602-globalsign-root-certificates
    Information about importing and exporting certificates can be found here:

  2. You need to make sure that group security policies do not interfere with the installation of root certificates: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates\System > Internet Communication Management
