You can download the root certificate from here and add it your connection options via:

  1. Advanced
  2. Certificates
  3. Server Certificate (CA)

Don't forget to save the configuration after testing if it works correctly.

Until the application is updated to a version of Electron where this was patched or the CA gets baked into the code with an hacky workaround, this the only way to fix the problem.

Hi @marinofra . Thanks for the workaround. This worked for me as well. I struggled a lot with this and thought something wit my mqtt broker setup is wrong. Is there a proper fix for this already? Like a new version of mqtt explorer?

I also stumbled upon this today... really frustrating to see that its the tool that is broken, not my new certificate setup...
