Hello Patrike, hoping you can help with Awesome Miner not updating Nicehash profitability properly. I'm not sure when it started, but the profitability on NiceHash has not been updating like the other pools. I first noticed this after Eth merge when we started looking for other coins to mine. Nicehash has been stuck on the same profitibility stats since at least then. I've found entries like this in the log file:

[089] [E]Failed to download string from: https://api2.nicehash.com/main/api/v2/public/stats/global/24h/
 System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel.

If I browse to that address with Chrome on the same machine, I do receive a valid response. OS is Windows Server 2012 R2, and TLS 1.2 is enabled in SCHANNEL registry settings.

Any insight you could provide?
I will review this scenario. On more recent OS versions, Awesome Miner can successfully connect to and get the details from Nicehash without this error.

When you load this link with Chrome, can you please press F12 to open the Developer Tools? Go to the Security tab and see the "Connection" section. This one will state the TLS version. It could however be that Google tries to connect with QUIC.
