    Very weird - had same problem.  Rebooted and found an extra login screen after connecting to sky through selecting a sky channel on VTV go.   On second try it let me log in to the virgin sign in and could select live, then desktop player and get to the match (although Sky said it was a different one) They seem to be mucking around with adverts for the new tennis channel which was shown on this extra login page. .Might not work for you but worth a try.  Make sure you've logged out of all sky pages.   Using Opera browser as Chrome didn't used to work

I have had the same problem for a week now. I've deleted all cookies. Tried both Chrome & Edge and downloaded the latest Desktop Player. When I look at which Sky Sports devices are registered all slots are available. But I stil get the message "Sorry your session has expired. Please sign out and in again on the website. Error code: OVP_00200". I have no problem watching Sky Sports on my Android Mobile. The above Accepted Solution doesn't work for me.

    Hey Andyval1953 and I'm sorry that you're still having the issues with the sky sports. Are you able to try to use Sky Sports via incognito mode within your browser?

    Have you logged fully out of Sky Sports and back in via the Virgin media sign in page?

    Kind Regards,

      Hi. Sky works OK using Incognito mode. 

      I've logged in and out numerous times including running McAfee PC Optimizer to remove cookies etc. All to no av ail. I then tried cpwood's suggestion (thanks for the effort/suggestion btw) but all to no avail.

        Hey Andyval1953,

        Thanks for getting back to us, with this then if it works via incognito mode we would advise to keep using this, otherwise we would advise reaching out to Sky with regards to this as this is their error code.
