https://support.site24x7.com/portal/en/kb/articles/how-to-check-if-tls-1-2-is-enabled
https://improveandrepeat.com/2019/10/how-to-activate-tls-1-2-on-windows-server-2008-r2-and-iis-7-5/

group the information.

  1. create DWORD item under below path call DefaultSecureProtocols, value is 800 or a00.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\WinHttp
  2. add below item and value too. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Client]
    "DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
    "Enabled"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server]
    "DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
    "Enabled"=dword:00000001

I try to download and install x64 KB4019276, but reply said my system not support this patch.

    I'd verify system and servicing health by running;
    sfc /scannow

    also system update readiness tool

    Then check for errors in;
    %SYSTEMROOT%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log
