Verify the status of all certificates in the certification path and import missing or damaged certificates from another computer
To verify certificates in the certificate path for a Windows or Internet Explorer product update, follow these steps:
Step 1: Verify Microsoft certificates
1.In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
2.On the Content tab, click Certificates.
3.On the Trusted Root Certification Authorities tab, double-click Microsoft Root Authority. If this certificate is missing, go on to
step 2.
4.On the General tab, make sure that the Valid from dates are 1/10/1997 to 12/31/2020.
5.On the Certification Path tab, verify that This certificate is OK appears under Certificate Status.
6.Click OK, and then double-click the NO LIABILITY ACCEPTED certificate.
7.On the General tab, make sure that the Valid from dates are 5/11/1997 to 1/7/2004.
8.On the Certification Path tab, verify that either This certificate has expired or is not yet valid or This certificate is OK
appears under Certificate Status.
Note Although this certificate is expired, the certificate will continue to work. The operating system may not work correctly if the
certificate is missing or revoked. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base:

9.Click OK, and then double-click the GTE CyberTrust Root certificate. You may have more than one of these certificates with the
same name. Check the certificate that has an expiration date of 2/23/2006.
10.On the General tab, make sure that the Valid from dates are "2/23/1996 to 2/23/2006."
11.On the Certification Path tab, verify that This certificate is OK appears under Certificate Status.
12.Click OK, and then double-click Thawte Timestamping CA.
13.On the General tab, make sure that the Valid from dates are "12/31/1996 to 12/31/2020."
14.On the Certification Path tab, verify that This certificate is OK appears under Certificate Status.

| One thing that might help, though I don't know what to do about it:
|
| When I open Internet Explorer, go to Internet Options-->Content, and select
| either Publishers or Certificates, and I select the Trusted Root
| Certification Authorities tab, all of the entries say: "The cryptographic
| operation failed due to a local security option setting." Each certificate
| icon has an "X" next to it. I'm guessing this "local security option setting"
| is what is blocking the update from installing. I'm just not sure how to fix
| it though.
|
| Maybe this new info will help. Thanks for the quick response!

|| Hi Jrout2004,
||
|| It's possible that your Cryptography service isn't running ...
||
|| 1.. Start the Administrative Tools utility in Control Panel.
|| 2.. Double-click Services.
|| 3.. Right-click Cryptographic Services, and then click Properties.
|| 4.. Click Automatic for Startup type, and then click Start.
||
|| Let us know if that doesn't work out for you.

||| Hi! I have Windows XP SP2. I used to play Halo for PC for a lot, and then I
||| stopped playing it, uninstalled it, and now I want to play it again. I
||| reinstalled in on an Administrator account, but whenever I try to play
||| online, the updater downloads the update, but then chktrust will not verify
||| the update. The updater stops, and I can't play online. I've tried
||| reinstalling the app, but that didn't help. I've also tried a manual update
||| from the halo website, but it comes up with an error message saying that the
||| digital signature wasn't accepted. I've already verified that Microsoft
||| isn't on the blacklisted publishers in Internet
||| Options-->Content-->Publishers.
|||
||| I'm really stumped as to what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
