Hello
We are having trouble updating/download Poly lens app from within the app.
I am not familiar with when exactly the problem started, but it was established after version 2.1.0 was released. 18.02.2025

I've tried going back to version 1.4.0 and still have the same problem.
Firewall problem is excluded

Thanks for the answer, but it has already been tried. And as mentioned, version 1.4.0 also fails.
I have also tried with several different network providers and on both win 10 and 11.
It has previously worked up to and including version 2.1.7, but when version 2.1.0 came we could no longer update.
Is there a place to find the log? e.g. Event log or in the program library

I have mistakenly marked this as "solved", it is not correct, still have the error.
Is it possible to change the case back to "unsolved" ?

Hello @Troelsbc ,

 

Welcome back to the HP Poly community.

 

This will not matter as the Community is a Peer to Peer community and you are not raising any case with HP Support

 

The HP Community is where owners of HP products, like you, volunteer to help each other find solutions.
 
 
 

Best Regards
