Hello! Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask. I have a bitwarden_rs server running on a local server and I have a self-signed reverse proxy setup so that I can use HTTPS in Chromium based browsers without issue. My question is how do I install the certificate on Windows to allow me to use HTTPS in the application also? I have taken the cert.pem file and changed the extension to .cer so Windows will recognise it, I installed it to trusted root certification authorities however I am still unable to connect within the Windows Bitwarden app with HTTPS.
