Why this happens
Our anti-leak system flags accounts when it detects HTTPS interception certificates, like the ones Fiddler installs. Our product cannot run on a network with broken SSL, so these need to be removed before you can continue.
1. Uninstall Fiddler
Go to Settings → Apps → Installed apps and remove any of: Fiddler, Fiddler Classic, Fiddler Everywhere or Telerik Fiddler.
2. Delete certificates (Current User)
Press Win + R and run certmgr.msc. In each folder below, delete anything named Fiddler, FiddlerRoot, DO_NOT_TRUST_FiddlerRoot or Fiddler_Root_Certificate_Authority:
- Trusted Root Certification Authorities → Certificates
- Intermediate Certification Authorities → Certificates
- Personal → Certificates
- Untrusted Certificates → Certificates
3. Delete certificates (Local Computer)
Press Win + R and run mmc. Go to File → Add/Remove Snap-in → Certificates → Computer account → Local computer, then check the same folders as above and remove any Fiddler entries.
4. Reset your proxy
Go to Settings → Network & Internet → Proxy and turn off any manual proxy, especially 127.0.0.1:8888 or localhost:8888. Then open Command Prompt as admin and run: netsh winhttp reset proxy
5. Firefox users only
Firefox keeps its own certificate store. Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Certificates → View Certificates, check the Authorities and Servers tabs, and remove anything Fiddler-related.
If they come back
Also disable and remove any other proxy or certificates on your system. If certificates reappear after a restart, go to Settings → Accounts → Access work or school and review any VPN, proxy or security software, as these can reinstall them.
To list every Fiddler certificate, run this in PowerShell:
Get-ChildItem Cert:\CurrentUser\Root, Cert:\CurrentUser\CA, Cert:\CurrentUser\My, Cert:\LocalMachine\Root, Cert:\LocalMachine\CA, Cert:\LocalMachine\My | Where-Object { $_.Subject -match 'Fiddler|DO_NOT_TRUST' -or $_.Issuer -match 'Fiddler|DO_NOT_TRUST' } | Format-Table Subject, Issuer, Thumbprint, PSParentPath -Auto
Once you have removed everything and restarted, let us know if the issue persists.
