The error ERR_SSL_BAD_RECORD_MAC_ALERT is generally faced by the Chrome users. A malfunction on your end or at the client’s end (browser) is to blame for this error. This issue is not caused by installation. The issue arises because a malfunction in the client’s device is also a cause of such an error. This error can occur for various reasons, such as network issues, clashing MTU size, or website constraints. Using an outdated version of Chrome and antivirus software that inspects HTTPS traffic can also contribute to this error.
There are different ways to fix the error that you need to understand properly which are as follows:-
1) Change the network type.
2) Update the operating system.
3) Upgrade Chrome to its latest version.
4) Update the date and time of the machine.
5) Change the Windows Time Service (W32Time) startup to ensure proper synchronization.
Many others fixing methods which you need to understand in detail. I also found the helpful resource article for the error solution at CheapSSLWEB.com. Maybe it will be helpful.
