When I open MS Edge browser, a text appears (seconds later) on the address bar to the left of https. My home page is my.yahoo.com, which appears to be the only site so affected. Any advice? Jim B

Click on the lock icon and "View Certificate". It should show you the yahoo cert and any in the chain. You can click on each in the chain. If any don't say "Valid Cert" there there is some issue with that cert. Post a screenshot of any cert with warnings.

Looks like Edge thought there was a problem with the certificate, but after closing and re-launching Edge the cert warning went away. I also tested in Chrome and it gave no cert warnings.

After resetting Edge I get the same ‘not secure’ notation. What are my options?

Thanks - certificate was valid, but in view of all the yahoo problems I have switched everything to microsoft. Yahoo calendar no longer offered, and the email quit working on their site when I opened windows mail accounts. Oh, well.
