Enable TLS through the Registry

[anthon...@gmail.com]

I am trying to enable TLS for our organisation as they need access to a
website that is explicitly using TLS on its website. The problem is
that I cannot enable TLS 1.0 through Group Policy like many other items
in IE. Is there a way to enable TLS by editing a registry key? If so,
where is that key located? Thank you.

For anyone interested, I wrote an ADM so that it can be applied through
Group Policy.
