As is stated in both responses you may have to contact Overdrive for tech support.

Good luck.

Absolutely nothing. I have tried using the Microsoft web link for the update;it tells me it is updating, then that the update is completed.

I have also gone to C: ProgramData/Microsoft/DRM and changed the name of the DRM file.( I do note that my DRM file is empty, so I can't imagine what magic this would work anyway.) I have modified Windows Firewall to allow Overdrive and all instances of WMP. I have disabled my adblocker. I have run sfc/ scannow with no problems found.
