Windows 7 does not support TLS 1.1 or 1.2 by default. This can be an issue if you are still trying to use Outlook 2010 on Windows 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately there is a way that we can enable TLS 1.1 and 1.2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First we need to verify that we have the correct Windows update in place. Download the appropriate download and double click it to run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For 64 bit systems download the update from here<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Change directories “cd” to the location you saved the above script to. ie. cd Downloads<\/p>\n\n\n\n Run the script with the follow command. Note you will most likely need to hit Y to allow the scripts to run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After the script runs, you’ll need to reboot your computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The script and information was taken from the following link.
