    @Jack Perry
    Hi,
    This subkey controls the use of TLS 1.2.

    Note For TLS 1.2 to be enabled and negotiated, you must create the DisabledByDefault DWORD entry in the appropriate subkey (Client, Server), and then change the DWORD value to 0.

    By default, this entry does not exist in the registry.

    Registry path

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2

    To disable the TLS 1.2 protocol, you must create the Enabled DWORD entry in the appropriate subkey, and then change the DWORD value to 0. To re-enable the protocol, change the DWORD value to 1.

    By default, this entry does not exist in the registry.

    For more information, you could refer to the following link:
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4019276/update-to-add-support-for-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-in-windows

    Hope above information can help you.
