My main concern is with this one:
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from symc.sam.symantec.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERTIFICATE_TRANSPARENCY_REQUIRED

I was able to access the website perfectly fine before upgrading to version 54.x, and have always been using a portable version of Iron.
Add-ons installed are the usual stuff I used to have (ABP, Tampermonkey, EnhancedSteam).
Thanks in advance for your help :cry:
Are you sure that you are running v54? Please check in about:
This was a v53 bug

We will disable CERTIFICATE_TRANSPARENCY_REQUIRED check in the next version as it's normal for Non-Enterprise Windows already.

The article is written for Google Chrome. The registry paths are slightly different for Iron:

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Chromium\CertificateTransparencyEnforcementDisabledForUrls
And then Strings 1, 2, 3, 4 etc with the relevant domains. For amazon I also had to add ssl-images-amazon.com and restart Iron...and then it worked.

Also experiencing this issue. I cannot reach Amazon, among others. Works fine in Chrome or FF. Totally unacceptable. I use Amazon every day. Just when I thought Iron was ok (I stopped using it about a year ago because it was getting buggy), now I have to revert to the mainstream browsers. I am not interested in making registry changes. I have had problems with that before, and I will not do it again. Very disappointed in Iron. I used it without major problems for a few years, then it started acting up and I went back to FF. Looks like I may need to remove it again. When it works I love it.
