Can't get answer for Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER in your FAQ
I can not log in to one site. This began just a few days ago. I CAN log in using Chrome and Edge with no problem. I have refreshed Firefox, removed all add-ons, even uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. This is the error message I receive today:
login.diamondresorts.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER
Yesterday I saw a longer text message with lots of coding 'jiberish'.
What can I do?

I hadn't checked the server previously, but it appears that the server doesn't send a required intermediate certificate.

Firefox will store intermediate certificates that are send by servers for future use and if you visit a website that doesn't send a full certificate chain chain then Firefox can use such a saved certificate. If you do not have the intermediate certificate stored then you get an error message like in your case happened.

- This server's certificate chain is incomplete. Grade capped to B
You can save the certificate text you see on the error page to a .cert file or download the certificate via this link.
You can import this certificate file in the Firefox Certificate Manager under the Authorities tab.
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Certificates: View Certificates -> Authorities: Import
You can find the Certificates section at the bottom of the "Privacy & Security" page or use the search bar (certificate).
Do NOT set any trust bits when prompted on an intermediate certificate. Trust bits are only required for trusted root certificates and should never be set on an intermediate certificate.
If you reload the page then you should no longer get this distrusted error.

Forgot to say I use Windows Defender for security.
That means there is a problem with the certificate for the website. This is a website issue.
- uses an invalid security certificate SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN
- configured their website improperly
