Visual Studio 2022 Error - There was a problem adding your GitHub account. Your default web browser might be using HSTS for localhost.
Good day! I was about to publish one of my .NET 7 console application to GitHub using Visual Studio 2022. And when adding my account, an error occured which states that "There was a problem adding your GitHub account. Your default web browser might be using HSTS for localhost.". After doing some research, I found this post Disabling HSTS for localhost on Chromium-based browsers which fixed the problem for MS Edge or Google Chrome Browsers. First you need to type in the browser url " about://net-internals/#hsts " command to open the Domain Security Page of your browser where you can clear the HSTS. Under " Delete domain security policies " domain textbox, type in localhost and click the delete button. After that, I have successfully added my GitHub account in Visual Studio 2022 and was able to publish my project. Cheers!
