I just deployed Windows 10 64-bit Education on my Macbook Air, a slightly updated installer from my main development PC which also runs Windows 10 64-bit Education.
I've installed Visual Studio 2017 and downloaded all of the nugget packaged for my project solution, exactly how I've done it on my development PC.
My problem is when I run production code that we use all the time inhouse and have received no complaints from our clients, it doesn't work on my new setup / installation.
We have a method to login users with a simple username and password field. When we call a PostAsync method it sends up the form data to our servers. I've used Postman and have received a correct response. The code hasn't been modified or changed at all and is known working code. I'm also working off coffee shop and home wife, which is the only difference. I haven't tried getting this to work in the office yet. Out clients go to coffee shops and use home wifi all the time..
Any thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Vague Exception - but my code hasn't changed at all?
{System.ArgumentException: The parameter is incorrect.
The parameter is incorrect.

URI setup code
Uri uri = new URI("https://oururi.com/login");
