What security software do you have?

There is security software like Avast and Kaspersky and BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and might be blocking some websites.

Try to disable HTTPS scanning in Avast Web Shield. 

Open the Avast dashboard on the affected system.
Select Settings from the left sidebar menu.
Switch to Active Protection.
Click on Customize next to Web Shield.
Uncheck the "Enable HTTPS Scanning" option and click OK.

This is only about disabling the scanning of secure connections. Avast should still protect you.
