How to resolve the SSL error with local copy of site on Dev Desktop? I am running a local copy of my site on Acquia Dev Desktop and everything is working fine.

The site is set to enforce SSL connection when logging in to the sitename.com/admin page. However, since it is now installed on my localhost, it does not have an SSL certificate and throws the error like so:  

SSL connection error
Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with the server,
or it may be requiring a client authentication certificate that you don't have.
Error code: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR


What can I do in order to get around this, and log in to my page administratively?
DevDestop now supports this.

Acquia Dev Desktop now provides simulated HTTPS support using a self-signed SSL certificate, which supports local testing and development of websites that rely on SSL. Learn more.

Just download a new version of DevDesktop. I'm currently on Version 2, Control panel rev: 032976b and have it working with sites that use SSL.
