Security Alert popup - Revocation info for security certificate not available

Hi guys,

 

I'm getting constant Security Alert popups from what i'm assuming is the adobe creative cloud running in the background. It says, "Revocation information for the security certificate for this site is not available. Do you want to proceed?"

 

Whether I click yes or no it always comes back within minutes. The certificate points to adobe.io and claims "Ensures the identity of a remote computer", valid until 2022.

 

Normally I would close the app from the system tray, but I notice nothing pops up when I right click. Instead I have to open and quit, then end any lingering tasks if needed. I just installed this less than a week ago and nothing has changed on my computer. I guess I could reinstall, but I wanted to check and see if there was anything else I could try before then.

 

I included a screen shot of the alert.

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

if it's consistent, it's probably related and there's something on your mobile or your data plan blocking the adobe secure connection.

Try these steps for Windows user:

  1. In the start menu, type Internet Options.
  2. Go to the Advanced tab and scroll down to the Security section.
  3. Uncheck the box for Check for publisher's certificate revocation*
  4. Select Apply and then OK.
  5. Restart the computer for the changes to completely take effect.

While disabling the security check might stop the messages it does not fix the issue.  The community college I work at has been seeing these messages for the last couple of days.  Are there any updates in the works?

Use a different default browser.  Or dial back your current browser's security settings by disabling Check for server certificate revocation and restart your browser.

Hi Nancy,

 

I changed default browsers to chrome, rebooted, and it's still showing the same popup. I didn't see anything in chrome or brave referring to this security setting.

Hi kglag,

 

I'm not using a browser though. In fact, this starts right upon PC startup and continues regardless of browser usage or not.

 

Thanks,

if you use the cc desktop app, it's checking your default browser security.
