My True Key app will not start up after the application appears to have been updated on 8/9. Following other community thread recommendations I uninstalled and reinstalled and have the same symptom. The application window launches and remains blank with the app "not responding" indefinitely. This looks to be a bad update to me.
Good morning,
We think that we have found the root cause of the blank screen on the True Key desktop standalone app that has affected our users recently. It is related to the Google Chrome browser, probably a recent update and we seen that other apps have been similarly affected by this.
Please update the Chrome browser or re-install it and let me know if the issue is fixed and you are able to open True Key without any issues.
If issue persists, restore the browser following these steps:
Thanks,

Just a quick question, did you try to re-install or reset the Chrome browser nonetheless?
Thanks,

Let me explain better, regardless that you use the True Key desktop app you are still using Chrome or Firefox (same framework) in the background so yes an issue with a recent Chrome update or corrupted browser cache will impact our desktop app as it has for other application as I mentioned before.
So, as I pointed out in the fix steps earlier, resetting or re-installing the Chrome browser should fix this issue. The issue is not related to our code, that is why reinstalling would have not fix this issue as we have seen and you pointed out from the experience of other users.
Thanks,
Marc D.
I just re installed and restored chrome and it doesn't work. I can't get into any of my passwords I trusted with McAfee for days now. I'm not very happy
I reset the Chrome browser as the fix suggests and the desktop app still hangs on opening. I then tried to use the browser extension instead and found a problem there so now I am completely without True Key. The browser extension now asks me to "verify" when I try to log in and the screen times out in about a minute while my verification email through my ISP takes about a minute and a half. Repeated attempts to verify have yielded even slower email and the screen times out WAY TOO FAST!!! I don't have an alternate device to use for verification so the email option has left me dead in the water.
I understand, I see that errors might be different for some of our users but still the desktop app is not accessible.
I will look into this with the team and will provide hopefully more about this tomorrow.
Thanks,
Marc D.
