Well you will have to upgrade to Windows 11 shortly anyway so it's worth doing to see if this fixes your issue with Sky Go.

That would be a reference to the Cisco 'Videoguard' digital rights management system built-in to Sky Go. The founders of Cisco Systems Inc basically invented modern computer networking.
The advice is usually this:
Uninstall the Sky Go app and then go to 'C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming (ensure hidden files/folders are visible) and delete the following folders:
Sky
Sky Go
And, if it is present, delete the Cisco and/or Synamedia folder in \App\Data\LocalLow
Empty your recycle bin.
Reboot your PC and then download and install the Sky Go app again.

Ok this worked for me on windows 11,
Go to START bottom left hand corner, of desktop,
Then click on your pc name ,bottom left hand corner,
Then click on change account settings,
Then click on APPS ,
Then click on INSTALLED APPS,
FINDS THE SKY GO APP and click the 3 dots at the end of that line,
And then click on uninstall,
After that reinstall sky go.
This worked for me when it kept closing down the app when trying to update,
Hope it helps some users good luck.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@sweetheart4321 If you're in a minimum term you can't and shouldn't stop payment simply due to a Sky Go issue as you are still receiving the service you pay for on your Sky TV boxes.
You can certainly expect all services with Sky to become restricted very quickly due to this.
