  1. # Notes about a problem encountered using Google Chrome on 2023_02_02
  2.  
  3. Google Chrome issue:
  4.  
  5. "You are seeing this warning because this site does not support HTTPS."
  6.  
  7. Also, Chrome seems very slow to connect to sites.
  8.  
  9. Google search link:
  10. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Google+Chrome+%22You+are+seeing+this+warning+because+this+site+does+not+support+HTTPS.%22
  11.  
  12. Solution:
  13. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  14. 1/ Browse to: chrome://settings/security
  15. 2/ Scroll-Down to: [Advanced] section at bottom of page
  16. 3/ Locate: 1st setting named "Always use secure connections" & toggle it OFF
  17. 4/ Done
  18. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  19. Solution ref:
  20. https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/130123328/website-not-secure?hl=en
  21.  
  22. search for "User 4283787915328623048"
  23.  
  24. Switching off setting "Always use secure connections" works.
  25. It turns out that with this setting set to "off", you will still see connections automatically be switched from http:// to https://.
  26.  
  27. For example, try connecting to http://youtube.com and you should find that once connected you have an https:// connection (see padlock icon in URL bar at top). Also, if you left click on the URL, you will see the actual URL used will be the https:// version.
  28.  
  29. Note that if you are using Chrome on several machines then switching off Google Chrome's security setting for "Always use secure connections" only needs to be done once to be effective on all the systems you use Chrome on.
