Mike you will have to backup "your Certificates" using the backup button. When you back them up jut make sure that you recall the password you will be asked for up to 3 times. You can use the same password to help not getting lost. The backup file will be created and you can copy that file to a new installation and then use the import button and supply the passwords to restore the. Scott Mike wrote:

Mike, Bingo
The 3 certificates that have an expired date is the issue confronting you now. If we were dealing with MS we could inset the CD do an update and there is a option their to re-validate all root certificates - but this is Linux - don't know why I told you that.
At this state I would be tempted to ask you to uninstall FF and then re-install it from your CD's, however before we do that can you tell me how many years ago was the installation performed - that will give me a clue if the installation date === issue date on the expired certificates then an uninstall and reinstall will give you back the same certificates but with a new validity period.
I ran apt- install --reinstall mozilla the other day
I can help you back them up and re-install them if the above is correct.
Perhaps it is time to consider a total software version upgrade - if so and you need you special certificates they will need to be backed up.
I have a new machine sitting beside me now. I was debating moving the existing drive over, or just trying to copy /home
Let me know how you go
