ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID (-201) trying to log in to new laptop
-
For example
"www.quora.com normally uses encryption to protect your information. When Vivaldi tried to connect to www.quora.com this time, the website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials. This may happen when an attacker is trying to pretend to be www.quora.com, or a Wi-Fi sign-in screen has interrupted the connection. Your information is still secure because Vivaldi stopped the connection before any data was exchanged.
You cannot visit www.quora.com right now because the website uses HSTS. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later."
How do you get around this?
-
No, nothing. It's a new OS install. Win 7. Maybe because it's old? i can't do windows updates. Not that you I want to. I like it old and simple. Can't run anything higher on this old laptop without bogging it down.
-
@juntjoo Not to be too obvious, but did you check that date and time on the laptop with the new system are correct?
-
Yes, already did that
-
@juntjoo Did you installed the certificate correct?
Check in Windows Certificate Manager does the "ISRG Root X1" show up if in tree Trusted Root Certificates?Perhaps the browser caches the wrong certificate.
Try this:
Openvivaldi://net-internals
In left navigation select "Domain Security Policy"
Scroll down to Section "Delete domain security policies"
In field Domain typevivaldi.net
Confirm with "Delete"
In field Domain typevivaldi.com
Confirm with "Delete"
In field Domain typebifrost.vivaldi.com
Confirm with "Delete"
Restart Vivaldi -
@juntjoo de.quora.com loads nice for me without any certificate errors.
But i checked and saw Quora changed their webserver certificate yesterday.Try a reload with Ctrl+F5.
if that does not help, try this:
Open vivaldi://net-internals
Select "Domain Security Policy"
Scroll down to "Delete domain security policies"
Typewww.quora.comin Domain field
Hit "Delete"
Typequora.comin Domain field
Hit "Delete"
Restart Vivaldi -
"The net-internals events viewer and related functionality has been removed. Please use chrome://net-export to save netlogs and the external netlog_viewer to view them."
is what I get from your instructions. I can't open this page on my laptop either. I'm using my phone. Firefox works. Vivaldi and internet explorer don't
-
@juntjoo You had not clicked at left on "Domain Security Policy".
Perhaps you get page "Domain Security Policy" with vivaldi://net-internals/#hsts
-
Hmm, no luck. Might it have to do with my windows 7 installation? I haven't done and updates or even activated yet. Having some issues with those things too currently working on
-
Okay, did it, but no luck. Same error message
-
@juntjoo said in Can't open many websites:
I can connect with 5.0.2497.24 on Windows 11 to https://www.quora.com and get Quora login page withoiut any certificate error message.
//edit: I guess you have a broken certificate store on your Windows. Related to https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/67111/fix-let-s-encrypt-certificates-out-of-date-since-end-september-2021
-
@juntjoo Had you restartet Windows or Vivaldi?
What happens if you open bifrost.vivaldi.com in browser? Any error message?
-
I get this trying to login on my laptop with Vivaldi browser:
Your connection is not private
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from login.vivaldi.net (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). Learn more
NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALIDI am currently using my laptop after logging in with firefox browser. Still think it's Windows?

@juntjoo Your Windows 7 certificate store is still broken.
If you click on the lock when error appears on bifrost page, what is shown in popup if you open Certificate?
And in Windows System/User Certificate Store Manager what is shown when you :
- select Trusted Root Certificates in tree and Check ISRG Root X1.
- select Intermediate Certificates for entry R3
-
@juntjoo Yes, i think it is your broken Windows Certificate store and/or some proxy/antivirus/desktop firewall.
-
Thanks. Why do you suppose Firefox doesn't have this issue?
-
@juntjoo Firefox does not use Windows SSL certificates and bring its own cert store.
-
-
@cristobal19601 Older Firefox use own certificate store, not the windows one.
Chromium related browser like Vivaldi 6.4.3160.44 use Windows certificate store.
Perhaps your Vivaldi is too old or your Windows or your installed certificates.
