Cause

This error can occur when trying to set a value for a registered module repository and Tls12 is not specified as the SecurityProtocol.

You can check the SecurityProtocol by running this command in PowerShell:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol


Resolution

To resolve this issue, set the SecurityProtocol to Tls12 by running this command in PowerShell:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

Install Security Protocol Type TLS12

You should then be able to set values for module repositories and install PowerShell modules successfully.
