What is Microsoft doing about the problem it caused with Win 10.

Hi Wayne,

Having an issue after an update in Windows 10 is really odd, especially if it's about logging in to your computer. However, for us to isolate your concern, we suggest that you provide us the answers to these questions:

• What troubleshooting steps have you tried to resolve your concern?
• Which version of Windows 10 are you using?
• What is the exact error message you're getting?
• Which account are you using (e.g., Microsoft, Local)?

We're looking forward to your response.

 

Microsoft Edge TLS Security

After trying everything (not a lot of steps) listed in the Microsoft Edge support site, I did a wider search and found this very simple youtube video that fixed it immediately:

For those who prefer not to click links the steps are simple:

1. Click in the Cortana search bar next to the Win 10 Start button

2. Type internet options

3. Select internet options (control panel) from the list

4. Click on the advanced tab

5. Scroll down to the security section

6. Make sure the following are all clicked:
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0
Use TLS 1.1
Use TLS 1.2

7. Click apply

8. Refresh the page that was giving the error and it should now connect.

Hope this helps, it was a 30 second fix after hours of pounding my head against the error with the Support site suggestions.
