Google Chrome puts certificate link back where is should be.

less than 1 minute read

A long while ago Google took the odd decision to move the ability to check a certificate from the URL bar in Chrome and buried it deep in the developer tools section. Well its back (sort of) in Chrome 60, here is how to put it back to where it should have been all this time (IMHO)

  • Type chrome://flags/#show-cert-link in the browser's address bar.
  • Select the Enable link that is associated with the "show certificate link".

Enabling the certificate link in Chrome

  • Click the Relaunch Now button at the bottom of the screen.

Can you can now check a Certificate from the URL bar........

Why they moved it in the first place only Larry knows.
