It won't let me login with my Desktop app.

The thread starter made his first post on Mar 1, 2020 and until now Apr 7, 2021, there is still no fix to this problem. When will this get resolved? It is so frustrating.

Sir good day I tried the steps above your comment and it actually worked, so far this might be a bug in the system.

I managed to fix it but I don't know exactly what process fixed it or it was fixed on its own.

 

  1. I uninstall the 32bit and redownload the 64bit.
  2. I used CCleaner. Scan and fix the registry

3. I exclude Upwork from the AdBlocker via Chrome Extension

4. I re-install the 64bit version.

5. After the 64bit desktop app was installed, it asked for CAPTCHA, solve it then the system accepted my credentials.

 

Hope this works also for you guys.

I tried these steps and now it's working. Thank you.

Hello,

I have trouble when trying to log into my desktop application. I have tried everything, uninstalling the app, deleting the cache, I even deleted the folder from AppData, and still nothing. And this is happening on my computer. When I try to log in on my husband's computer, everything works fine. Here is the PrintScreen of the app. Please help.

Hi Sandra,

 

Could you please follow the troubleshooting steps shared in my previous post and let me know if you're still experiencing the same problem after this? Thank you.

Hi Goran, I wanted to give it another shot, and did everything again, deleted the app, deleted the folder in AppData, restarted the computer, downloaded a fresh 32-bit app, and now it's working. But it won't work at 64-bit.

Hey guys,

 

It's fixed for me. I only had the issue yesterday starting mid am. I cleared all my data yesterday but it didn't do the trick but after restarting the computer this am, it worked. It may have been a cache issue as well, I am not sure.

Hi, 

 

Everytime I try to log into the desktop app I get an error saying "Due to technical difficulties we are unable to process your request. Please try again later." I've browsed multiple forums with this topic and have taken all the given advice, including unsyncing Chrome login, deleting app cache, etc. but it still doesn't work.

 

I'd like to open a support ticket and get this resolved as I'm delaying deliverables to my clients due to this.

I am trying to login my Desktop app since 2 days but getting message (Due to technical difficulties we are unable to process your request. Please try again later.) I re-install app but not working

 

See screenshot - https://prnt.sc/117c21g

Hi Tarsem,

 

Could you try to follow the troubleshooting steps below:

1. Please try logging in to your Upwork account on a browser so it will ask you to complete the CAPTCHA. Afterwards, you should be able to log in the Desktop App as well.

2. If the issue persists, please follow the six steps listed below. Note that by following these steps you will lose all preferences, user settings, saved credentials and any un-uploaded time cache. You can’t undo this action. Afterward, it will be like you are logging in for the first time.

 

1. Uninstall the Desktop App.
2. Depending of your operating system go to the location listed below and locate the "Upwork" folder:
Windows: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Upwork\Upwork
Mac: Navigate to Go > Go to Folder > Upwork > ~/Library/Application Support/Upwork/Upwork
Linux: ~/.Upwork/Upwork
3. Delete the folder.
4. Restart your computer.
5. Download and reinstall the latest version of the Desktop app. Chose 32-bit Standard if on Windows OS and currently using 64-bit version.
6. Launch the app again and log in.

I tied everything.

1. Reinstall the app

2. Delete upwork folder from the Appdata

3. Also tried the beta version of the app

 

But No Luck...

I see this error when I try to login to the Upwork time tracking App, "Due to technical difficulties we are unable to process your request. Please try again later."

 

here is what I have already tried: 

logging out and trying to login again

disconnecting Google service from upwork and then trying login with my user name

reconnecting the Google account

uninstalling the current app and installing different version including beta version

Nothing worked for me, need help as I am missing my work hours. 

Thanks 
Tania Bera
