Fixes For HTTP Error 403
Users can fix the 403 error in several ways; below are some fixes:
1. Check For URL Errors
Sometimes errors in the URL can lead to the server returning a 403 error; this is the case when your URL is trying to access a directory and not a website. Many developers configure their websites to disallow directory browsing because it leads to information disclosure.
When a user requests a website and leaves "/" in front of the URL, the server automatically loads the index file. However, when there is no index file in the directory, the browser will display all the files and folders in the specified directory- known as directory browsing.
As a user, the solution is to remove the "/" of the URL and try to reaccess the website. As the website owner, configure directory browsing requests to be redirected to a specific page or create an index file in the directory.
2. Clear Website Cookies And Cache
When you visit a site often, your browser stores a cached copy so that the next time you visit the website, the site loads faster. Also, the browser saves your data usage on the site and login credentials on cookies.
If your browser has a page cache with an error, but the website owner changed the link on the website, it could result in the 403 error. Also, if the authentication details saved on the cookies are no longer valid, it can lead to the 403 error.
To fix this, you would need to clear the cookies and cache on that site by following these steps:
Click the three dots at the top right of the Chrome window.
Select Settings.
Select Security and Privacy >> Cookies and other site data on the page that loads.
Scroll down and select See all cookies and site data.
You'll find a search bar at the top-right corner; type the website's name you're having issues with there.
Click the bin logo you find on the right side of the website name to delete the site cookies.
3. Deactivate VPN Usage
Some websites do not allow users to access them using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). If the webserver can detect that the user has an active VPN connection, the server will return a 403 error.
If you get a 403 error while using a VPN, you should try connecting to the website without a VPN. If the website goes through without a VPN, you should try using a different server on your VPN or switch to a different VPN service altogether; if both options don't work, you'll have to use the website without a VPN.

To resolve this problem if using a broadband connection, you should remove the specified proxy from Internet Options by following these steps:
If you are using a variant of Windows XP and cannot see a proxy specified in the Lan Settings, you may have to tick the checkbox (to use a proxy) and then access the Advanced button and remove advanced proxy entries. Once this has been undertaken, please untick the use proxy server box and close all Internet Explorer windows.
Netscape users should click on Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Proxies. Ensure that you have selected a Direct connection to the Internet.
