GlobalCapture Error connecting to Portal

Problem

A Windows Update pushed out by Microsoft for Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 (KB4480970) on January 8, 2019 may cause the Batch Portal in GlobalCapture to fail to authenticate.  Logging into GlobalCapture will present the following error Error: Error connecting to Portal: One or more errors occurred.

Additionally the Batch Portals will appear Red from the Portals configuration screen.
