I am **unable to open the Week 1 lab** for the Course 3 (Natural Language Processing). It shows the following error message “We were unable to retrieve a launch URL. Please make sure you are logged in to Coursera, and have access to this lab.”, I tried relogging and opening the same in an incognito window, but the error still remains. Your help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi @marvy ,

There could be two possibilities:

1. You were enrolled onto the course under the 7 days free trial option and it is now expired. If this is the case, you need to enrol to the full pay option to gain access to the assignments.
2. The system experienced a hiccup. If you logout and logon again, it would normally solve the problem. You may also like to try a different browser to see if it helps.

Hey, thanks for replying. I opened this assignment on another computer and it worked fine there. I am not using the 7 day trial, I bought the course.
