    Why would an identical certificate chain be valid for one file and invalid for another?


    I have made a fresh Window 11 install 24H2 OS build 26100.1 without connecting to the internet. I am trying to make sure that an .msi file I have built has a valid digital signature. I have two files:File1.msi, which is newly built and timestamped for October 2024File2.msi which was built last year and timestamped June 2023These were built with InstallShield 2018, with File2 timestamped with Symantec, and File1 timestamped by Digicert. Apparently the default Symantec server doesn't work for InstallShield anymore https://community.flexera.com/t5/InstallShield-Knowledge-Base/Digital-Signing-P

    How to Fix “content was blocked because it was not signed by a valid security certificate” on Edge browser

    When a website is blocked because it doesn't have a valid security certificate guaranteeing its identity, that's an important warning that you shouldn't ignore.

    Your best course of action is to not access that website until it has a valid security certificate. The other course of action is to add the invalid security certificate to your browser's certificate store, but that's taking a big risk.

    invalid certificate

    I am trying to log on to one of my own remote security cams and it says the certificate is invalid. I tried to put this on a safe site list but it won't run the active x to view images
