Your connection is not private

Attackers might be trying to steal your information from fe2.update.microsoft.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). Learn more

NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

To get Chrome’s highest level of security, turn on enhanced protection

fe2.update.microsoft.com normally uses encryption to protect your information.

You cannot visit fe2.update.microsoft.com right now because the website uses HSTS. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later.

Answer 1

The precise url is in my original post. I posted here becuse didnt knere else to post.

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention, so I didn't notice you're talking about Android.

There is no problem with the Microsoft certificate; the fault you're seeing results from a failed validity check. Chrome uses a system for checking certificates that is different from the one used by Edge. I understand that this system is currently being revised (starting with Chrome v.105), so perhaps you've encountered some teething trouble. Please refer to this article for tips on how to proceed: Fix connection errors - Google Chrome Help. You'll see that your error is mentioned specifically on the page.

Answer 2

Answer 3

NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

I can't reproduce this fault. What is the precise URL you're seeing it on? The certificate for the download page is issued by the Microsoft RSA TLS CA, itself certified by the Baltimore CyberTrust Root CA.

Any such fault is usually transitory, so visiting the site again in an hour or two should succeed. You seem to be using Chrome; is there a reason why you posted in a forum for a different browser - Microsoft Edge?
