More Than One Solution To Invalid Certificate Error In Simple Language.

Hey mate! The best way to troubleshoot is to know the cause and then deal with that cause. The following are the possible reasons behind invalid certificate error, which are discussed below with their respective solutions:

• Incorrect date: when the date set in your system does not match with the one in website’s certificate, then this error occurs. To fix this error, you need to update the same in your system.
• Website name: another common cause behind this error is typing wrong name while browsing. For instance, a simple difference of ‘www’ can cause this problem. To avoid this issue, you need to be very particular about the name of the website.

These are a few suggestions. Hope these will work. Good luck!
