Windows 7 Media Center: Netflix “Authorization Failure” error
14 02 2012In case you’re having an issue watching Netflix through Windows Media Center because of an “Authorization failure…” error, try the following (it worked for me):
1. Exit Media Center.
2. Open Internet Explorer and click Tools and then Internet Options.
3. Click the Delete button – check all of the check-boxes and then click the Delete button. Click OK.
4. Browse to http://www.netflix.com and sign in. Note: No need to save the passwords in IE.
5. Close Internet Explorer.
6. Open Netflix and play anything.
7. Click Yes to the pop-up.
That’s it. Hope it works for you like it did on mine.
