Security alert popup

Mickmac · Jul 1, 2024

This security alert keeps appearing on my desktop, like about every hour.
How can I stop it ?
It's become very annoying -
Thanks.....

what site are you leaving open or what connection (rdp, etc) is running?.. view the cert to find out the source

Try to reset internet Security Settings to Default Levels.

Open the Control Panel.

Open Internet Options.

Select the Security tab at the top of Internet Options.

Choose Reset all zones to default level, located toward the bottom of the Internet Options window.

Select OK.

You can now reopen Internet browser. Try again to visit the websites that were causing your problems to see if resetting the security settings helped.

I just opened Google Search and it popped up again.
When I clicked on General and Certification Path tabs this came up, looks suss to me........

Thanks, will do that, but why would that suddenly start happening ?
I have been using Windows for about 20 years now and I don't remember ever seeing it before......

If Google produced that, scan your pc and see if anything shows up:

Also, go to Internet Options > Content > Certificates and remove that cert. See if it repopulates.
