Why is it that every time I try to check for updates I am Forbidden - and told I don’t have access to this resource?
Where are you checking? I mean, Download Assistant, Steinberg Website etc?
I am checking within Nuendo. Help > Support > Check for updates
This has worked for years and only started ‘Forbidding’ me over the last couple of weeks.
Hmm. It works for me, initially sending me to https://r.steinberg.net/goto/?id=1831&plc=SHM&lang=EN which after a second redirects to a much-longer-uglier-URL with the downloads. Does yours fail immediately or do you see a little line of text ‘You will be redirected…’ for a second and then it pops up Forbidden?
I see a little line of text suggesting a redirect - and then the Forbidden message. I get the same issue when I clicked on your link as well. I use Opera and Firefox. Interestingly, it works as expected using Microsoft Edge. So it looks like a browser issue.

Fantastic Phil! Thanks for your time. Problem solved!
Sorry it was an abrupt message, was typing on phone, in fact, there was only 1 cookie set that needed to be cleared but glad it did the job.
(Leaving this here in case anyone else needs it).
