Hi @jgil ，

Check if  your antivirus  was blocking the sign in.

And make sure you are using the latest version of personal gateway. Also check whether your computer meets the installation requirements(A 64-bit version of Windows operating systems) and some limitations (such as cannot be installed on a domain controller) should be avoided. Please find the installation details in this documentation.

And try to removing the "RSA" folder which is in the "C: \ Users \" NAME USER "\ AppData \ Roaming \ Microsoft \ Crypto" path.
The error occurred for some reason of encryption with the application's user installer.After removing the folder, simply start the Gateway setup again.

refer to the answers.
