When trying to log in to a website (e.g. Facebook, Ebay etc) you may
receive this error message “There is a problem with this website’s
security certificate”. Browsing normal websites should work but you will
get the error message whenever you try to access a website where you
need to login to use the site.
The most likely cause of the error message is that your computer’s date and time are incorrect. If your computer’s date/time is incorrectly set to a few years ago then Windows will think that the security certificate is invalid and display the error message.
Open the date and time settings (right click the clock in the bottom right corner of the screen) and change the date and time to the correct values. Check that you can now log into websites.
Older computers may keep losing the correct date and time after being switched off (unplugged) – often changing to a date from many years ago. In this case you will start seeing the security certificate error message again. The reason it keeps losing the date and time is because a small battery inside the computer (which helps store the correct date and time) has died. To fix this problem permanently you would need to replace the battery inside your computer.
Solution : Set Your PC's Date & Time. If Problem Still Exists Then Replace Bios Battery.
