I tried to update Quaternion from version 0.0.9.4e to version 0.0.9.4f but I could not log in, because there was an error:

screen:

Quaternion 0 0 9 4f - 2021-09 - error - 002

The same error happened with version 0.0.95 RC4.

I also noticed that About window for version 0.0.9.4f shows wrong version - 0.0.9.4e.

I have no problem logging in using version 0.0.9.4e:

screen:

Quaternion 0 0 9 4e - 2021-09 - 002

However another error appears:

screen:

Quaternion 0 0 9 4e - 2021-09 - error - 001

Testing different versions of Quaternion is not easy because it saves its settings in Windows registry, and in different in keys:

Deleting the keys and starting anew did not help, log in problem persisted.

These problems happen on Windows 8 x64.

So for the time being I can only use Quaternion version 0.0.9.4e since Quaternion version 0.0.9.4f fails to log in.

The TLS error is due to an unfortunate but required switch to the new OpenSSL version. Please take a look at Quaternion README file (you can find it in the GitHub repo) regarding the particular version required. I also strongly recommend to use 0.0.95 RC4: despite being a pre-release, it is much better and more stable in many respects than 0.0.9.4.

Thanks for the tip. I used the binaries provided on this site and I was able to log in.
