Hello,

all of a sudden, all computers in the domain began to issue an "internal error has occurred" error.
We cannot find the reason why this error started to occur, but more than 500 workstations became unavailable immediately after rebooting the system.

We found out that if you enable inheritance for the "C: \ ProgramData \ Microsoft \ Crypto \ RSA \ MachineKeys" directory, the problem is outdated instantly. Without restarting the terinals service or rebooting the system.

We found out that inheritance is not enabled by default for computers that are not included in the domain and this problem is not observed.

We ran the script to enable inheritance and that fixed the problem.

The day before the incident, we disabled support for TSL 1.0 and 1.1 in the registry. However, we tried to retry by disabling TSL on computers in a different domain. But failed to get the same error. We cannot understand what it was. What caused the incident. The problem arose on all computers, this is not like updating the system, installing some kind of software, because computer service is separate.

Thank you.
