As stated there I tried running windows update and downloading the latest root certificate package but that dint helped and still facing that error. Do you guys have any working solution for this? Thanks for all your helps.

To me it clearly seems to be the problem with certificate. Did you checked the Windows Update logs? What is mentioned over there?

Thanks for the help walter. Can you please be more specific and let me know where can I get the logs for Windows Update? I’m new to this. Thanks again.

Hey guys, I have been through this problem couple of months ago. Though I dint found the permanent solution for this but here’s what I did to get rid of the same. I open Control panel, went to Add/Remove programs , opened Add/Remove Windows programs. Here you need to uncheck "Update root certificates" . restart the computer and hopefully you wont get that error again for next few months.
