    Hello,
    I'm having a problem accessing some sites with Chrome. When trying to logon to normal sites I use every day like Hotmail or my bank, I now get:

    Your connection is not private
    Attackers might be trying to steal your information from login.live.com(for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).

    NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

    There's a ton of posts out there, but I can't seem to get any to work. I'm hoping you can help. A while back, I did find a fix that worked, but I can't find it again. Please help. Thanks!

    You need to import certificates. Looks like your certificate store is corrupted.

    A number of resolutions found in this article. Perhaps one that will work for you.

    I tried some of those fixes which I saw in other places, but I'll work through the list again. Something strange is happening this morning. First thing this morning, Weather.com was giving me the same issue. I later did a re-start later for Comodo security updates. I can now get into the 3 sites I was having issues with. I re-started yesterday, but it didn't matter then. seems to be hit-or-miss.

    The post above mentioned importing certificates because my certificate store is corrupted. How would I go about doing that?

    Thanks Page42. It looks like this may be for servers and not PCs. It also looks like the highest version is for WIN 8.1. I'm using WIN10. I'll read it more thoroughly though...

    For some reason, it seemed to fix itself a week or so ago, so there was nothing to do. Last night however, Hotmail stopped working again. Today it works fine for some reason...
