    Microsoft Edge immediately went up to 4.5GB RAM and 90% CPU.


    Hey Guys, I was using my PC which is a Dell Inspiron 3471 with an intel i5 9400 Processor, 8GB of Ram, and Intel UHD 630 Graphics adapter, and was working on a PowerPoint presentation with Microsoft Edge open. Suddenly my computer fan started to make so much noise and the fan started to run at full speed. So I decided to check in the task manager and guess what I saw Microsoft edge running at 90% CPU and it's increasing its consumption of RAM time by time. I was doing just basic browsing that I do every day. Is there any proper reason for this because this slowed down my computer so much as it

    :)

    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.
