The "NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID" error appears when there is an issue with the SSL certificate of a website. The SSL certificate encrypts data between the website and the user's browser, and a trusted certificate authority issues it. When the SSL certificate is invalid, the browser cannot verify the identity of the website and will display an error message.
To fix the "NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID" error, Here are several possible solutions:
Check the date and time on your computer system:
If the date and time on your computer are incorrect, the SSL certificate may appear to be expired. Correcting the date and time should fix the problem.
Try a different browser:
If the error occurs in one browser, try accessing the website in a different browser to see if the error persists. You can also try accessing the site using a VPN service.
Use Incognito Mode:
One of the quick ways to check if your browser has a cache or cookie issue try accessing the website in a private tab.
Clear browser cache and cookies:
If the browser loads the old version of the page, that is because of the cache or cookies, as cached data can interfere with the SSL/TLS certificate verification process. Clearing the browser cache can resolve the issue.
Connect to a Different Network:
It is also possible that the issue is with your network only. To check that, try visiting your website in a different connection and see if the problem is solved.
Install a trusted SSL certificate:
If you are the website owner, installing a trusted SSL certificate from a reputable certificate authority may fix the error.
