Backyard Nikon won't install

[swingin]

It has worked for years but I haven't used it for about 8 months and I can't validate it, windows 10

Hi,

I'm confused. It won't install or it won't validate?

It won't validate, my license is saved and I put in my validation (swingin) and it just won't load.

I've even tried compatibility mode for win 7 and Win XP still no luck. Also run as administrator

 

Just connected my camera and now it seems to be working, weird!

Thanks for letting us know that you are now working.

It could have been fixed by a Windows update???? Validation needs TLS 1.2 to be installed as part of Windows in order to validate securely with the O'Telescope server. Perhaps some problem with your TLS was fixed by a Windows Update. The following link provides background:

You should not need to run in compatibility mode or as Administrator in order for BYN (or BYE) to operate.

I don't know, it's seems to be working fine now so that's all that matters! Thanks for your help. Solved!
