WININET_E_SEC_INVALID_CERT

WININET_E_SEC_INVALID_CERT is a WinINet HRESULT. It means that the certificate selected or supplied for the secure operation is not valid for use. The certificate can be malformed, expired, missing a private key, outside its validity period, unsuitable for the requested purpose or rejected by the target.

What to check

Inspect certificate validity, key usage, private-key availability and the target hostname or identity requirements.
Renew, replace or correctly install the certificate through the approved certificate-management process.
Do not suppress certificate validation or continue with an invalid client or server identity.
