    Same problem here. Seems like this dialog-box interacting with Discogs, is running on a very old browser, that doesn't handle the scripts anymore. If you look at the source code (by right-clicking), it returns an empty page after you click "Authorize". If I paste the link from the previous authorization page in my browser, it generates a reply token. Just don't know where to put that. I looked at the windows registry entries, there's entries for Discogs and DiscogsSearch, but I don't really know how to insert this token there.
    I know the program is now free, which means it will not be updated, which is fine feature-wise but this is broken functionality that needs to be patched somehow, so if anyone knows how to? Or if we can update this internal browser to a current version?

    So I remembered I had somewhere still an OrangeCD installation on another older computer, so I compared the windows registry entries. Under "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Firetongue\Or ganizer\Discogs" there should be two entries, namely AccessSecret and AccessToken, which where missing at my current computer where Discogs was not working anymore. So I exported the registry entry from the old computer and imported again on the current computer. And yes then it is working again!
    I know this not really a fix, but it might help someone in a similar situation.

    Success!!

    Taking a tip from FranticBlue, I found an old hard drive that still had the operating system intact and was able to find the missing registry entries. This worked for me, and I once again have access to "Add From Discogs." Note that this involves editing the Windows registry, so don't attempt unless you know what you are doing.

    In regedit, go to:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Firetongue\Organizer\Di scogs

    Add string:

    AccessSecret

    Value data:

    JSTYjBuAGdwpMmhITpHZnyZqifpSTbcdgHqDApsr

    Add string:

    AccessToken

    Value data:

    FPisAqRyvZMgyPsKHiSioNcwJjdfbBpbvWztwUAQ

    Close regedit and see if it worked.

    Hey GJetson,

    This didn't work for me. In fact, I thought to myself that I could just use the freedb function for now, but (and I hate to break it to everyone) that doesn't work anymore either. Bad HTTP status.

    Freedb was shut down in 2020. But it will live on in the OCD menu because no one is updating OCD. For what it is worth, both Amazon and Discogs searches still work for me.

    The Above Suggestions Didn't Work For Me, For Reasons Beyond My Control I Have To Start All Over Again Amazon Gives Me A Bad Status Error And Discogs script error Makes OrangeCd useless, Like I Asked A Long Time Ago Is OrangeCd Dead And The Answer Is Yes!
