Windows 10: How do I check Certificates in Win10 to make sure they are safe?

I know how to get to the Certificate Manager ( certmgr). There are two columns named "Issued To" and "Issued By", There are names of those issued certificates and then names of those that issued them. I somewhat understand the information displayed when you double click on one of the names. What concerns me is there are many different issuers. How can I tell who are valid issuers and certificate recipients? How do I tell if the issuer shown is the real authority and not an imposter? How do I tell if the entity listed in the 'Issued To" column is real? It is more concerning when I see the 'Issued To" is the same as the "Issued By" entity.. How is that supposed to instill security? Who oversees this? Back to my original question "How can I verify the issuer and the issued to are valid entities?"
