NO WEBSITE ACCESS due to "Potential Security Issue" - SEC ERROR EXPIRED ISSUER CERT, no bypass or exceptions like I've been able to do in the past, plz help me
I dread the days where FF has an updated version of something for me to install.. because this issue ALWAYS rears its ugly head.
I've been ignoring the updates since Feb and for very good reason because this time (138.01 or whatever) I'm unable to bypass these security certificate expired error codes that say:
"If your clock is already set to the right time, the website is likely misconfigured, and there is nothing you can do to resolve the issue. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem." I literally was able to access all these sites without issue until I downloaded your must have update. How is this fixed???
Should I just uninstall FF and go back to Brave? I'm so tired of dealing with this as a normal day to day, no coding/tech background, etc. internet user.

When I look at the test page
it has the usual "Advanced" button in Firefox 138.
But for the site where you have the problem, you do not have the Advanced button, or the Advanced button does not provide the option to continue to the site?
Normally, that button saves an exception. However, if you are using private browsing, it is temporary because saving it to disk would reveal a bit of your history (that you visited that site).

Yes the advanced button was present on all sites but then the option to continue to the site itself was hit or miss, depending on what site I was trying to access.
Even the continue option was inconvenient because I had to "accept the risk" with each and every click.. I did the basic computer restart and it seems to be behaving again.
I appreciate your time and response! And yes I did post my Q four times because I was in a slight panic and wanted to make sure it was seen lol. Thank you again!
