Error: The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel

Scenario: You are trying to access or download from a URL within PowerShell and you receive this error message:

The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure Channel


Solution: Use TLS1.2 in your PowerShell to initiate the download.

#verifies that TLS1.2 is available within your PowerShell
	[Enum]::GetNames([Net.SecurityProtocolType]) -contains 'Tls12'

#If True, Checks to see if TLS1.2 is in use with PS
	[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol.HasFlag([Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12)

#If False Run the following to enable the use of TLS1.2
	[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

#Check again for True
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol.HasFlag([Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12)

#Then attempt to initate the install
