I think it's expired cookie. Yahoo is free to change something on their end, you know. If you let WLD run overnight like I did you may experience this. Restart WLD every day and data update should work.

Kept WLD running for 2 days under Visual Studio's debugger hoping to catch the error but it has disappeared since then. LOL

Same story today: no error. If I'm right and the cookie expires it may be doing that sometime after 24 hours or even later.

Today I had the URI error too... for the first time.
And WL was not running in the background .... just started up.
But restarting WL helped ... thx.

I got the same error today but nothing fixes it. It used to happen before but rebooting the PC helped every time. After trying different things I uninstalled the antivirus and the VPN software, cleared the cache, and deleted cookies but nothing changed. I am stuck.

Yahoo is just one of the many providers - moreover, it's a free feed that comes without any warranty. You can be certain that they do not want you making automated data downloads though. Here's a list of replacements for WL6:

Wealth-Lab 6 Data Providers

WL6 is completely unsupported. Yahoo's working in WL8 but even if it failed it would took some time to notice (for U.S. stocks) because WL8 has a built in failover and would simply request the data from next enabled provider. In addition to the WL6 providers (which received a lot of improvements in WL8), the new version has wider coverage (IB, TDA, Alpaca, CSI, Tradier...) - with Norgate data coming soon.
