Install .NET 4.6 (a later version may work, an earlier version such as .NET 4.5 will not)
-
Create a file with a .reg extension (for example, sslfix.reg) with this content:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319] "SchUseStrongCrypto"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319] "SchUseStrongCrypto"=dword:00000001

Double-click the .reg file to apply the registry fix
