Download Dial-a-Fix by djlizard, save it to the desktop then extract it to it's own folder.

Open the folder and run Dial-a-fix.exe
2 windows will open. Close the one in the background labeled Restrictive Policies
On the main window, CHECK the box in section 4, labeled SSL/HTTPS/Cryptography. The 4 boxes under it should be pre-checked
Check all boxes in Section 5, labeled Registration Center.
Click Go
OK any error messages if received, but write them down and post them here.
Restart the computer when done
