There are no comets to select in box and cannot add other star catalogues

[James Skinner]

When I go to the location to add new comets, there is not the list there used to be. Also, when I try so select the next star catalogue for stars around 10th magnitude, it will not do it. I unistalled Stellarium and downloaded it again but same problem. Windows 10. Thanks, Jim

Please make sure the URLs in the address box in the Solar System editor start with https:// (note the s). MPC changed their policy.

About star catalogs: not sure. You can always rename the "stars" folder in your Stellarium User Data Directory, then current defaults will be restored, also any changed URLs.

SourceForge and MPC switched to using HTTPS only - please upgrade to version 0.17.0 to resolve this problem.

Does this solve your problem?
