SSL error in Google Chrome
Google Chrome browser stopped loading sites and gives the error “Invalid server certificate” or “Google Chrome ssl error”.
Possible reasons:
- antivirus blocks the connection;
- incorrectly set date and time on the computer;
- the browser version has flaws. Chrome browser version 18.0.1025.151 for Windows 64 7-bit had a bug that prevented users from surfing the web properly. After some time, an update was released, with its help the error was eliminated.
The cause of the glitch is the introduction of a new certificate verification system. The first experience was a failure.
If your browser Google Chrome another version, which means you need to look for the reason elsewhere.
Steps to solve the problem:
- We check the time and date on the computer; if they are lost, then we synchronize them with the server on the Internet. Checking the functionality of the browser.
- We check the antivirus for blocking the connection. To do this, briefly disable HTTPS protocol checking and check the operation of the browser. If the error disappears, then you need to change the antivirus or change the access settings for the ssl protocol.
- The error may also occur in Windows XP SP2. To eliminate it, update the OS to SP3 and check the result.
- This error may occur if the operating system is not activated or is not licensed. In this case you will need install a licensed copy of Windows. If you know of other causes or solutions to this problem, please let us know!
