No longer able to browse to localhost using https

IDK is tis is the right sub-forum, but... so for years I have developed sites hosted locally under IIS7, and been able to browse to them using https://localhost/[whatever]... today my browser suddenly tells me it's insecure and that the certificate has expired.

Opening mmc.exe and looking under certificates, both under "Personal" and "Trusted root certificates" I see an expired one called "Localhost" and another one with the same name not expired! I deleted the expired ones, and restarted IIS, but the problem persists.

Is there anything I can do that doesn't require a PhD in computer science to fix this?

Thanks... (and why has it happened after all this time?)
