Page remains blank. I checked that Root CA was still listed , but “security.enterprise_roots.enabled" is not modifiable anymoreand is stuck in “false”.
This is on my Windows11 client, Librewolf on Linux has no problem accessing Start9.
Well, this is a Librewolf question, rather than a StartOS question. So you may want to seek Librewolf specific support. I however, am a Librewolf user myself, so I’ll try to at least point you in the right direction. I’m curious as to what version you are on, as I have not run into this problem yet on my Windows 11 boxes. What I do know is, some settings are “protected” from modification within the browser. I’m not sure if maybe the setting in question is now one of them, since the latest version. I know you can over-ride settings, including protected settings by manually editing librewolf.cfg, or policies.json.
I’m not sure the normal path, as I’m using the portable apps version, which might also explain why I haven’t run into this issue yet. The portable version is usually a version or two behind. But if I had to guess, the first place I’d look would be within %USERPROFILE%\.librewolf\. Hopefully, this gives you a start on what to look for.
We finally figured it out with grok:
The problem started after the latest librewolf update and I found this online:
Changes in LibreWolf 149.0.2-1:
“Disabled all OCSP, using only crlite now, with third-party/OS root certificates disabled librewolf/settings@7ec4ee7453 (credits to Phoenix)”
That led us to go into the librewolf.cfg file where there was this:
// Disable third-party/OS-level root certificates
lockPref(“security.certerrors.mitm.auto_enable_enterprise_roots”, false);
lockPref(“security.enterprise_roots.enabled”, false);
We changed it to:
// Allow OS/third-party root certificates (user override)
pref("security.certerrors.mitm.auto_enable_enterprise_roots", false);
pref("security.enterprise_roots.enabled", true);
and that solved the problem for now.

I’m on 149.0 -1, so this will be great info, if the problem arises the next time it updates. Thank you!
