Win 10 PC using SSMS 20 and MS SQL Server 2008R2. I can connect to local DB and GoDaddy DB with no problem.

Win 11 PC using SSMS 20.2 and MS SQL Server 2022 Dev. I can connect to local DB with no problem. When trying to connect to GoDaddy DB I get this: The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted

What to do?

ChatGPT helped. In the connection panel I had to check Trust Server Certificate. It also explained how to add GoDaddy's cert to my system.
