# Error Troubleshooting

## Error Message - The connection from the insecure (HTTP) web page to the local 'Dynamsoft Service' failed

### Symptom 

On Windows 7 x86, Win7 64 Enterprise (or any older Windows OS), you get an error message that says **"The connection from the insecure (HTTP) web page to the local 'Dynamsoft Service' failed. To fix the issue, please update your website to HTTPS or refer to [this article](/_articles/faq/http-insecure-websites-in-chromium-browser.md){:target="_blank"} for other workarounds"** even if you are accessing a secure (HTTPs) web page.

And refresh the web page does not work. 

### Cause 

This issue is only limited on Windows 7, likely the cause is due to TLS 1.2 is not enabled on Windows 7 by default (this protocol is enabled by default on Windows 8 and higher versions), which leads to GoDaddy Cert can't be recognized.
