Hi, I get this error in the last few weeks and I am not sure, whether I should do something about it. I went to TechNet, Event ID 11 Automatic Root Certificates Update Configuration, but I would need something simpler that I can follow. Confuseduser P.S. Exact error message is below: -

I don't see any reason the solution above would not work in Vista.  I see the same folder structure and registry entries on Vista. 

If you are not familiar with the registry, here is a very detailed instruction set on how to delete entries:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/136393

Be sure to use the export option before deleting entries in order to back them up.

This does help.

Now that you've pointed this out I've seen the same behaviour in the CAPI2 Event Viewer log file. My Windows 7 clients have been trying to access two URL's at the domain http://crl.microsoft.com/

None of the posts I had seen on this had mentioned the need for this path.

Thanks,

Michael

hi

Here's a basic definition for CRL in general terms. You can search Google using "Certificate Revocation List" and find a lot more information.

it could also be that direct X is looking for some updated drivers

what happens is that your browser is checking for provoked certificates , is perfectly normal and safe , its to keep you safe

have a nice day

ps for some further info

    Hi Kem, how do you disable it?  I'll try it as well.  Confuseduser

    Since I don't make use of the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service I disabled it (the service).  The result was that the event 11 error disappeared.

    I'm not too interested in the why and how (lack of expert knowledge) -- just satisfied.

    No risk in trying -- you might be lucky.  ;-)
