I wanted to visit a site which wasn't trusted so I added it as an exception. Now I can't find this website anywhere in the browser settings, including in the list of certificates. How can I find it? Thanks in advance

Are you sure you saved it from before?

Hi arkaeik, where have you looked so far?

Could you try the Options page:

  • Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options
  • Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
  • Linux: "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences
  • Any system: type or paste about:preferences into the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it

In the search box at the top of the page, type cert and Firefox should filter the page and make it each to find and click the "View Certificates..." button.

In the resulting "Certificate Manager" dialog, click the "Servers" tab. Normally there is hardly anything on this tab. You can ignore the ones with * in the Server column. Can you find (and remove) the exception here?
