Windows 10: SSL Websites Popping up in New Window

I have a user that has a strange issue and l'm able to reproduce it partly, but it reverts back to the same behaviour as before.Both Edge and Chrome open up fine, but both are opeing separate tabs every time they log into a SSL Website.I have done everything - made sure that the browser is at the most recent version, cleaned registry, and still the same behavior exists. The only thing l have not tried to do is recreate the user profile, but lm only hoping to do this as a last resort.Any thoughts?

I cannot access secured ssl website to check email

Hello,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Forums.

I understand that you are experiencing issue with checking email on SSL websites after upgrade to Windows 10. I would certainly help you with this.

I would appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

• What happens when you try to access the SSl websites? Do you get any error message? If yes, what is the complete and exact error message?
• Does the issue persists with both Microsoft Edge and Internet explorer?

If the issue appears with Internet Explorer as well, we can try clearing SSL state. let's try these steps below to do so:

Try to clear the SSL state from Internet Options and check.

• Press Windows key+R key to open Run prompt.
• Type inetcpl.cpl and press enter.
• go to the Content tab.
• Click on Clear SSL state and press o.
• Close and reopen Internet Explorer and check.

If the issue reappears, then do the following.

• In Windows Internet Explorer, click Continue to this website (not recommended).
  
  A red Address Bar and a certificate warning appear.
• Click the Certificate Error button to open the information window.
• Click View Certificates, and then click Install Certificate.
  
• On the warning message that appears, click Yes to install the certificate.
  

Restart Internet Explorer and check if the issue persists.
