title: Making fiddler work with chrome
body: <p>I want to use fiddler to monitor api calls made by my browser when it visits some pages.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The technology</strong> - Fiddler 4.6x, Chrome 56, Firefox 51, Windows 7 64 bit.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The problem</strong> - Fiddler does not work with chrome. When I open any page on chrome, I get the error "Your connection is not private: Attackers might be trying to steal your information from website (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID". FYI, I easily fixed a similar issue with firefox.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Solutions I tried that failed</strong> -
  Four hours of google and stack overflow did not give me any solutions. </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Convert the fiddler cert to pk 7 ??? format.</p></li>
  <li><p>Import fiddler cert into chrome. Also, grant the cert all kinds of advanced permissions.</p></li>
  <li><p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41442069/fiddler-web-debugger-why-cant-i-debug-https-requests">Install the fiddler cert with admin rights on windows, by "running" it</a>.</p></li>
  <li><p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/38881582/6648326">Run chrome and ignore cert errors</a>.</p></li>
  <li><p>Regenerating the fiddler cert and restarting fiddler and browsers as given in the official fiddler book.</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>In 2,3 the cert never appeared in trusted cert store, but appeared in personal and immediate cert store. In 1, nothing even happened. Please tell me how I can make this work. Any links to the basics of all this would help.</p>
