How to get rid of the "Your connection is not secure" error in Google Chrome browser?
It has been said many times that browsers are the main tool for working on the Internet. And it has also been repeated many times that today there is a fairly large number various browsers. Some browsers are very popular, and some are very mediocre. You can safely add a browser like this to the list of popular browsers: Google Chrome. Today we will look at a very common error that occurs in this browser. Imagine this situation. You regularly use the Google Chrome browser and everything works fine. But at one random moment, when going to some site, the site page does not load, but instead an error appears. Instead of the website you are used to, you will see the following text in your browser window: "There is no lock". And under this entry there is another entry that says that attackers can steal your data.
How could such an error appear in the Google Chrome browser? In fact, there are several reasons for this. Let's look at them.
This kind of problem is related to site certificates. They may be from an unverified author or may be out of date. By the way, one of the reasons for the error “Your connection is not secure” is an incorrectly set date and time on your computer. Incorrect date and time affect certificates. For example, the expiration date of the certificates does not match the date on your computer.
The error “Your connection is not secure” may appear on some sites and this is quite normal. Since website certificates may indeed be unverified or outdated. But if an error of this nature appears on almost all sites that you open, then the situation here will be different. Here are some recommendations to help you resolve this error.
Very often, an error of this kind occurs in the Google Chrome browser installed on the Windows XP operating system. If you are in this case (and you have a 32-bit OS), then check for Service Pack 3 (SP3). If you have a 64-bit version of Windows XP, then you need to check Service Pack 2 (SP2). Both of these update packages can be downloaded from the official Microsoft website. It is located at microsoft.com.
The reason for the “Your connection is not secure” error may be your antivirus or one of the browser extensions. If the problem is related to your antivirus, then you need to disable the HTTPS protection or scanning function in it.
In order to check whether extensions are involved in this problem, you need to open the Google Chrome browser in incognito mode. First you need to disable all extensions in incognito mode. This is all done in the browser settings. Then everything is extremely simple: if in incognito mode the problem does not appear, then one of the extensions is to blame and therefore needs to be removed.
Still, most often an error like “Your connection is not secure” appears when the time and date on your computer are set incorrectly. Therefore, before moving on to other ways to solve this problem, check the date and time on your computer. Even in such a popular browser as Google Chrome, errors can occur. But any errors can be eliminated. An error like “Your connection is not secure” is proof of this.
