ChuckR · May 7, 2020

I was reviewing my event logs to see if I could do any cleanup when I came across multiple occurances of the schannel error fatal alert 70 followed immediately by fatal alert 80. SFC /SCANNOW found no problems.
I run Windows 7 Professional 64bit. I run Google latest version. I run an NVIDIA graphics card. I have FireFox installed and I seldom use it.
The error started 12/07/2019 from what I can find in the Event Log.
