How to resolve “enter the password for credential storage” issue?

Question

So I am playing around with fiddler web proxy. I need to decrypt https traffic. So I am trying to put the fiddler root CA cert in my device trust store. But it keeps asking me <

Answer 1

I could now install the certificate. I had to disable pattern screen lock and try installing certificate again. This time it asked me to setup security - pin or password.

That I did and cert got installed. Got the solution from android central forum.

I guess that thread is for VPN but same solution works for Wifi certs as well. Please do add if anyone has any additional info on this or workaround.

Answer 2

you must create a password to block/unblock smartPhone, Not PIN, maybe Patter, I try set a password and works fine
