Please check below points:

1. Installing the .NET Core SDK installs the ASP.NET Core HTTPS development certificate to the local user certificate store as part of the first-run experience, but it is not trusted. To trust the certificate, perform the one-time step to run the dotnet dev-certs tool.
2. Check the certificates in the certificate store.Find localhost certificate with the ASP.NET Core HTTPS development certificate both under Current User > Personal > Certificates and Current User > Trusted root certification authorities > Certificates
3. Try to remove all found certificates by checking carefully from both Personal and Trusted root certification authorities.

Note: Do not remove the IIS Express localhost certificate.

Try to run the following commands in .NET CLI and try again

dotnet dev-certs https --clean
dotnet dev-certs https --trust

Note: Untrusted certificates should only be used during app development. Production apps should always use valid certificates.
