I can’t launched my game. Something about certificate error. Came a popup window telling me “The issuer certificate of a locally looked up certificate could not be found [http://binaries.eveonline.com/evelauncher\_win\_release.json](http://binaries.eveonline.com/evelauncher_win_release.json)”

Reinstalling the game still give me the same issue.

Ticket submitted. FYI, only my old PC running Win7 Pro facing this problem. My latest gaming laptop is working fine.

It’s a known issue; you need to apply a special update from Microsoft to update intermediate certificates. KB3004394 I believe it is.
