When opening VMware vCenter you get the error - Privacy error: Your connection is not private

I encounter this error after resetting the vCenter self-signed Certificate.


Issue: I get an error when trying you load our vCenter homepage using the google chrome browser:


Privacy error: Your connection is not private (NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID) when opening VMware vCenter


Steps to fix

- Navigate or browse to chrome://net-internals/#hsts (This is Chrome’s UI for managing your browser’s local HSTS settings.)

- First, to confirm the domain’s HSTS settings are recorded by Chrome, type the hostname into the Query Domain section at the bottom of the page. Click Query. If the Query box returns Found with the settings information below, the domain’s HSTS settings are saved in your browser.

- Type the same hostname (for example vcenter1.domain.com) into the Delete domain section and click


Note: Your browser will no longer force an HTTPS connection for that site. You can test if it's working properly by refreshing or navigating to the page.
