This has been happening a lot now a days. I am using the firefox nightly for Windows on my Windows 10 Developer Preview. When I first installed it, it was working just fine but after a few updates it has been refusing to connect to any website whatsoever saying it's a POTENTIAL SECURITY RISK. I can't seem to find any working solution to this problem and wanna know why does this keeps happening. I remember it happened when I was using firefox nightly on my Arch Linux as well.

You can modify this pref on the about:config page and set its value to 1, used in current Firefox releases, or to 0 to disable this security feature.

  • security.pki.distrust_ca_policy = 1

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
