If you are having issues with Firefox then you might encounter the ssl Error Certificate Unknown Alert when you try to access your account information or when you try to log into your account on Firefox. This error can occur when your security certificate expires or when it gets invalidated by Mozilla Corporation because of some changes made by them in their system. This error can be annoying and frustrating because you cannot access your account properly or you cannot log into your account on Firefox anymore.
The problem can be caused by a server error or a network error but sometimes other applications are interfering with the proper functioning of Firefox on your computer. This can be caused by a virus or a malware that is installed on your computer. To fix this error, you need to try a few solutions.
First of all, this error might be caused because your internal signing certificate is expired or it is not from a trusted source. You can renew your internal signing certificate and then check if the error still occurs. You can also import your internal signing certificate as an authority to make Firefox trust it. If this does not work, then you can renew your certificate with a different authority.
If the error is still occurring after you have imported your certificate and it is from a trusted source, then you try creating a new profile for Firefox. You can do this by clicking on the Menu button on the toolbar and then clicking on the Edit link at the bottom of the menu. Then you click on the Add Profile button and you will be able to create a new profile for Firefox. After you have created a new profile, delete the file that is currently in the profile and then restart Firefox.
The other thing you can do is to contact the developer for Support and Service to solve this error.
