Windows 10: Device specific error, HTTP401: DENIED - The requested resource requires user authentication.

I found that on my HP Envy 17t that I am getting an error when trying to access the database of a specific website. This error only occurs on this device as I have changed networks, browsers, and tried incognito/private windows. I found the following warning and error which I believe to be the cause, but I am unsure of how to resolve the issue.

SEC7139: [CORS] The origin '[specific domain]' used the maximum Access-Control-Max-Age value of '1728000' as the provided value exceeded this for a cross-origin request to '[specific URL on previous domain]'.

HTTP401: DENIED - The requested resource requires user authentication.
(Fetch)GET - [specific URL on previous domain]

I have found that if I use a VMware Linux box, however, I can successfully access the database.

a request for device descriptor request failed


Maybe it's time to step back from the current efforts, and start over. I suggest you read over this excellent tutorial and try all of its steps: [Solved] Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) for Windows 10 - Driver Easy. The one that may provide you with some easy relief is the one where you uninstall the device whose descriptor is failing, reboot, and see what happens when device enumeration recurs during boot-up. If you're lucky, it will fix itself.
