Windows 10: Pop up Windows Security Microsoft Edge

On my PC running Windows 10, I have a popup. A loud message:

do not shut down,

On the screen there is a Box has Windows Security in small font, typed above Microsoft Edge.

Below, the Microsoft Edge line, is

The server 000226 gq is asking for your user name and password



That server also reports "Suspicious activity..............................................................................

............................................................more text



asks to call+1 888 334 0956


below there are 2 slots to fill in log on info and passwords



loud message asks not to shutdown the computer, to call +1 888-334-0956 (windows Security Toll free)

The PC is locked. (I used the key board to shut the message)



I have Norton Security and have run that after the first time this Pop up came.

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.
