# "Session Interrupted" or "Session expired"

> Sign out and sign in again. No reinstall needed

<Steps>
  <Step>In the **Session Interrupted** window, click **Try again**. If the window closes, you are done.</Step>

  <Step>
    A red line shows up:

    * **This session is no longer valid. Sign in again.** Click **Sign in again** and sign in in the browser. [Sign-in hangs?](/en/fix/sign-in)
    * **The server didn't respond. Try again later.** Your session is fine. Wait a few minutes and click **Try again** once more.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Still no luck, or you got the notification **SoundCloud connection has expired**:

    Click **Settings -> Account -> Sign Out**, then **Sign in with SoundCloud** and allow access in the browser. Downloaded tracks and settings stay.
  </Step>

<Info>
  Signing in again also helps when STAR did not show up after payment or the library is empty after a long break. It will not help with **All hosts are down** ([what to do](/en/fix/servers-down)), zapret or provider blocks.
