Unable to Connect to Burp Embedded Browser

Davishankar | Last updated: Feb 15, 2021 07:01AM UTC

Hi, I have been using Burp for some time now. Till now I had been using it on Firefox or the embedded browser. Recently I tried to set up Burp on my Chrome browser (using the instructions given) as well. Since then I am having trouble using Burp's embedded browser. Whenever I enter a domain, it only connects to the http version of the website and it shows an error near the certificate option. The error message is "The certificate cannot be verified up to a trusted certification authority." Please help me with the same.

Thanks for your message. Are you able to browse to HTTPS sites using Chrome or do you also see errors when you use Chrome? If you remove the certificate you added in Chrome, are you able to use the embedded browser?
