Where to find certificate exceptions for Edge

Question

For Edge, where does one find a list of all certificate exceptions made by the user, so that one can vet the list?

I was referred to this from from https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/msedge_other-msedge_win10/how-to-remove-security-exceptions-in-edge/6321241c-8a85-4221-9ffc-3862c94a1c85

We tried without success:

1. Edge's certificate management,
2. Control Panel > Internet Options > Content tab > Certificates
3. certmgr.msc

Answer 1

If you navigate to edge://settings/privacy and you will see Manage certificates and in this place under Personal tab you will see list of certificate where you added and it is your customized certificates.

Answer 2

Hi，

The problem is that it isn't clear how certificate exceptions manifest themselves in Edge's certificate manager. The most likely tab seems to be Untrusted Publishers, but I don't see my certificate exception there.

What is your certificate exception, how do you make a certificate to be "exception", and what is your expected behavior in Edge Certificate settings?

Best Regards,
Anne

Hey @Frank Macintosh - just curious if you ever solved this?

I'm running into a similar issue and everyone thinks i'm crazy... I could swear that back in the IE/XP days, the certs would be right there in the cert store and you could see them from the browser.

I need to figure out how to get windows to forget that i trusted an invalid cert, but i cannot find the cert or the exception anywhere. This particular issue isn't with a browser, but rather with an SSLVPN client that uses the windows certificate store, but it'd be nice to know how to clear the cache.

I've tried the internet settings route and cleared the SSL Cache under the content tab, but that had no effect.
