The account settings information from below would be much more useful, along with the information about anti virus and malware. Where you got your build is also relevant for Linux and some distributions make their own builds and errors.

Verbatim information on the error messages you receive would also be quite useful. Common issues with the 78 build that generate no errors are mostly related to bad or ancient TLS implementations or self signed certificates.
