We have received multiple support reports indicating that users are too easily activating the "Distrust system certs" option, leading to various problems. This setting should be used with caution, and users may not fully understand the implications when enabling it.

Proposed Solution:

  • Add a warning message or confirmation dialog when users attempt to enable "Distrust system certs" to ensure they understand the consequences.
  • Provide more detailed documentation or a help link explaining when and why this option should be used.

Expected Outcome: Users should be more informed and cautious when enabling this option, reducing the number of support issues related to it.

Yes, maybe make a dialog if users really want to activate this option with a hint that this could cause serious problems with establishing connections if they don't install additional certificates. And also write that this is not recommended for people without networking knowledge.
