Last Edge update on Windows 22H2 22621.382 causes search error

Just loaded 22H2 22621.382 and did an internet search without problem. About a minute later I got a notification that MS Edge just got updated (to v106..0.1370.37) and when I tried to do that same exact internet search I now receive the error below. I've also noticed this same problem on the later 22H2 builds like 22621.608. Once MS Edge gets updated to version 106.0.1370.37 that error starts appearing on my searches.

you mean 106.0.1370.37 the 136.0.1370.37 is the far far future one well i had this one with 105 ver too dont remember with 104 tho, to procced with that error use the private mode of the broswer

Yes it helps, but we really shouldn't have to do that.

I think this problem is caused by the Bing search engine so I changed the default search bar to Google instead and will test futher and report back.

Problem still occurs randomly even if you use private mode too.

well brave is the worst for my taste personaly!
may i test the links you get the error? cause that error i get i one page that download apps from store manually so i need to use private mode to procced

plus try to update the edge its a new version now.... and windows too

Ok, I'm tracking down the issue. Here's what I've discovered. If I run Edge including the latest version and I just input into the URL field Norton Ghost it will generate the Your connection isn't private error. However if I engage my VPN and then repeat that same URL field Norton Ghost I don't get the error message. Using the Brave browser I don't get that error even when I'm not connected to my VPN. I think this definitely has something to do with using Edge's Default Bing search engine. Very strange.

When you click on the certificate, what does it say? Who issued it? Ussualy AV replaces legitimate certificates with fake ones.

Here ya go.

If you have Mcafee AV, try to temporarily disable it's web protection.

Don't have it on my system. This is a default Windows 11 Pro system. 22H2.22621.608 with no other AV program installed on it.

Looks like I'll be sticking with the Brave Browser until this anomaly has been fixed in Edge.
