Sense Desktop not authenticating

Good afternoon. 

I noticed a few days ago, a few times during the day, my desktop authentication 'hangs' at the cloud screen instead of opening my desktop hub. I am on September 2019 version. Normally I close and reopen the session or at worst I need to reboot my machine. Today the problem persists and I cannot get into my local hub. 

When starting Sense, the authentication screen appears and I enter my credential. Instead of authenticating and showing my local hub, it takes me to the cloud hub, which really has nothing in it.

At one stage I thought it may be my network speed, but a speed test shows it should be fine. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced a similar issue and what resolved it?

I am currently having the same problem. It takes me to the cloud hub. I have restored and reinstalled the Desktop application, but doesn't work.

I had the same issue, switched the laptop to airplane mode to kill internet access & it did the trick.

Looks like it. I authenticated for the first time today about 3 hours ago, and it works as it should. Thank you for the update..
