Expected Error: The server deliveredthe unexpected content-type application/xmsdownload

Hi there! I am working on a machine with an issue that gives me the error

 

 

"The server deliveredthe unexpected content-type application/xmsdownload"

 

 

Two other PCs on the same network can connect, I am showing nothing being blocked.

 

PC is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, have tried using IE 11 and Chrome (latest version)

 

Cache has been cleared, dns flushed, firewall turned off

 

Unsure of what else to try, can anyone please assist :)

    After speaking with someone who had a similar issue, I looked at the logs and confirmed

     

    VeriSign Universal Root Certification Authority was a missing cert.

     

     

    For anyone who may need this cert in the future you can get it here

     

     

    symantec.tbs-certificats.com/vsign-universal-root.cer

     

    put https in front of the link I am posting so others can see

     

     

    Thanks for you help AshC

      Hi there AshC

       

      A software vendor needs to remote into the machine and they use

       

      fastsupport.com

       

      Unfortanetly it seems I can not get it connected due to the following error message.

       

      Thanks! All help is appreciated :)

        RPRATHMICRO  The error there can mean that your operating system is corrupted in some way.  Have you tried logging in under a different User to rule out any local settings?   If you are locally connected to the network, can you try safemode to install GoToAssist?
