Edit Reason: a few more details
)
error trying to join. says run client software. launched client software verified GSC is green. tried again. same error. clicked the checkbox next to GSC and clicked add. Reselected exe file for GSC. still not working.
Firefox
Windows 7 pro
Not sure if the error is from sim racing system. does GSC need to be open before clicking join?
3 minutes is not alot of time to troubleshoot. I suggest opening the join window to more around 10 minutes.
-edit- just prior to clicking join I had quickly tested GSC with formula vee on cordura track so i know the sim end was working

Lets check everything:
When you manually execute the client you can add and remove the sims. You have done this and afterwards it is marked green. This means that your profile is matching your username.
Just to be shure, check your UserData folder and verify that there is a folder named Glenn bonnet, case sensitive.
Inside this folder check if there is a Glenn bonnet.PLR again case sensitive.
If everything is ok until here, something is blocking the client on your PC i've seen this on a friends PC that had Antivirus software installed.
You said you dont have antivirus installed (sometimes disabling the AV for a small period doesnt work). firewall? antispyware? Windows firewall and defender don't seem to interfere.
Firefox is good, i use it, but there are some plugins that prevent SRS from running like ABE from Noscript. Do you have these kind of plugins installed?
MS Edge is not compatible but IE is, can you try with IE?

could you please update my profile name from Glenn bonnet to Glenn Bonnet or glenn bonnet
i think this will solve it. i know i could create the new profile but it would be easier to get it into the database in an easy to remember manner.
my GSC profile is currently Glenn Bonnet. the srs client shows green so somewhere the client is not comparing case sensitive profile names since the sims are green.
to avoid future issues id suggest removing the case in the comparison. Do we really want a Glenn bonnet, glenn Bonnet in the system?
thanks for the help and hard work. i know it will b great
