- The directory to save updates in NI Update Service is on a network drive. Go to File >> Preferences to save your updates on a local drive.
- Your computer's system clock may be out of range. Check your computer's system clock, and reset it to the current date so server authentication does not fail.
- If you are using Internet Explorer, make sure it is set to work online. In Internet Explorer, ensure File >> Work offline is not checked.
