When trying to get to my old hotmail account I'm getting this message. Screenshot below. I've deleted browsing history and that didn't fix it. Please help. This is the only website that's giving me this message. Thanks.

Are you behind some sort of proxy? The invalid certificate is not something I'd expect from Microsoft. Try clearing your cache as well.

Same thing on another browser? Edge, Firefox
Flush DNS (command window, type ipconfig /flushdns)
Try Incognito mode
Check system date/time for accuracy
Try disabling any proxy as mentioned, VPN, AV, FW

Well crap. It worked that one time, then I went to Hotmail again and it's back. I've never seen this issue before.

What do you see when you inspect the certificate? Click the lock and then click to look at the info from the actual certificate. It should tell you a name of the cert authority and the name of the website or ccompany that got the certificate.

There's a few threads on reddit about this. Looks like there's some potential screw ups with a migration. Try using outlook.com instead (different login front end, same back end)
