I am not using AVG. I have Windows 10 Home 64 bit with Windows Defender. I am not using any other anti-malware program. I have scanned my computer Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware. No problem found. I read this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/error-codes-secure-websites?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=troubleshoot-SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER and check most suggestions in this article. And still I cannot solve this problem
