Where do SSL certificates in Supermium come from? I haven't had a need to run any updaters, and I don't update my Windows.

Good question!  All Chrome-based browsers use WINDOWS'S "cert store".  But I also *never* "update" Windows.

But I've also *never* encountered "expired" certificates.  And I'm also "deadset against" any (including those found at MSFN) "certificate updaters" (cause more harm than good).

So yeah, good question, it would seem that my usage (and it sounds like yours too) would &/or should bump into "expired" certs - but again, I never have.

In the past, for me at least, that was because I *created my own* certificate for PROXOMITRON and the browser only relied on that certificate.

But I dropped Proxomitron in favor of all userscripts and userstyles about a year and a half ago (too many Cloudflare issues that requires Proxomitron [Reborn] to be bypassed).

My gut reaction answer was that maybe certs are good for too long into the future so I've never hit an expiration.

But MSFN's cert shows only THREE MONTHS between release date and expiration date.

This Win10 install is WAY older than that!  With no Windows Updates allowed!  But no cert error here at MSFN.

Sorry, none of that is really an "answer", per se, but adds intrigue to your question.  Hmm...
