Title:
[BUG] Claude Code Desktop login fails with "Invalid Authorization" on Windows

Preflight Checklist:

  • [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • [x] This is a single bug report
  • [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

Environment:

  • OS: Windows 10 22H2 x64
  • Claude Code Desktop version: [obtenir avec: où la fenêtre CCD affiche la version]
  • Installation method: Native installer
  • Account types tested: Pro, Free, no account

Bug Description:
All authentication attempts fail immediately with "Invalid Authorization" error (red text) in Claude Code Desktop.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Launch Claude Code Desktop
  2. Attempt login with any method (email, Google, API key)
  3. Error appears: "Invalid Authorization"

What I've Tested:

  • 2 different Windows 10 PCs
  • 2 different networks
  • Multiple email addresses (different domains)
  • All account types (Pro, Free, new accounts)
  • CLI command claude config set apiKey returns same "Invalid a..." error
  • All fail identically

Expected behavior:
Authentication succeeds as it did a few hours ago

Actual behavior:
"Invalid Authorization" error on all authentication attempts

Additional context:

  • claude.ai web works normally with same accounts
  • Last successful CCD login: few hours ago (3 Feb 2026)
  • Issue started suddenly without any changes to local configuration
  • Both CCD GUI and CLI affected
