WinServer 2019 Standard Https Issue - windows

Recently installed Windows Server 2019 Standard (legit and activated) and migrated my mail server over to this server. I noticed after I was done that I cannot browse the web if the website uses https. Below I attached pictures and I have tried to research and really haven't found much. Google Chrome will not let me even try to visit any https websites. While at the same time IE will let me continue on but websites do not load properly. Windows update is 100% up to date.

Visual Studio 2017 and Chrome: ERR_SPDY_INADEQUATE_TRANSPORT_SECURITY when starting a fresh new project

I just downloaded VS 2017 and installed it on Windows 10 Professional. Then, full of hope, I started a new web project with the Angular template. I hit <Run>, accepted to install the generated certificate that VS generates for everything to work, and suddenly Chrome said:
ERR_SPDY_INADEQUATE_TRANSPORT_SECURITY
And now I'm sad and disappointed.
Everyone on internet says that it was fixed with the latest update of VS 2017, but it's not true because I have it totally updated (I just installed it an hour ago, downloaded from Microsoft web page).
I'm running (64bit all of them):
Visual Studio Professional 2017, 15.9.7
Windows 10 Pro, 1709, compilation 16299.402
Chrome 72.0.3626.119
Finally I solved the problem adding these two entries into the Windows Registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters]
“EnableHttp2Tls”=dword:00000000
“EnableHttp2Cleartext”=dword:00000000
I have found the solution here. It says:
There are a few reasons for this and the main one is that IIS in Windows Server 2016 turns on HTTP/2 by default and only falls back to the older HTTP/1.1 if the browser doesn’t support HTTP/2. While HTTP/2 is generally a good thing and most recent browser support it, it also has stricter requirements than HTTP/1.1 and the issue with these browser errors is that the Windows Server 2016 is trying to establish an HTTP/2 session with the browser but the server is configured with some weaker SSL Ciphers which aren’t supported by HTTP/2.
Hope it helps others.

Visual Studio Browser Link not working in Firefox

I'm using Visual Studio 2015 and Browser Link doesn't work with Firefox.
IE and Chrome work perfectly with Browser Link.
Just got a new machine, but that didn't help either.
I tried the prerequisites mentioned in the browserlink dashboard (for static files, enable debugging) and I use IIS express, so .NET 4.0 is there.
Are there any more settings needed in Firefox?
In the network view, I just don't receive a response from the server, 0 bytes transferred.
Network trace:
Found it, the main website was running on 44300, browserlink seems to run on 44399 (although that port isn't visible in IIS express)
Browse to https://localhost:44399 gave me the Firefox "This Connection is Untrusted" screen, where I needed to trust("confirm security exception") the self signed IIS certificate (just like what I had done on the https://localhost:44300 site)
So it seems Firefox remembers trusted certificates per port number, not per DNS/IP/Name like IE and Chrome seem to do.
Now the browserlink is working and downloading the files.
I don't have IIS running locally, but ran into a similar problem running the app locally with Visual Studio 2019.
The suggestion by Erik fixed the problem for me as well. Browsing to https://localhost:44399/ and accepting the certificate worked in Firefox Developer.
Some more details from Microsoft regarding self-signed certificates:

Using Office for Mac 2016 to edit a document using WebDAV

I had to rebuild my Mac and installed Office for Mac 2016 (from an Office 365 subscription). I am not able to click on a link on a web page and edit the document with WebDAV (iTHit implementation not SharePoint). I was using Office for Mac 2011 before the rebuild and that was working...When I clicked on the link using Safari, the pop up for allowing the SharePoint browser plug-in did not display. Since the site I am connecting to uses basic authentication over a non-SSL connection, I used Terminal and ran the following command: defaults -currentHost write com.microsoft.registrationDB hkey_current_user\hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\office\15.0\common\internet\basicauthlevel -int 2
I was not able to have the document open with Word.
I uninstalled Office for Mac 2016 and deleted and file that reference Microsoft..Then I installed Office for Mac 2011 and ran the command above with \14.0\ instead of \15.0\. I can edit documents with WebDAV.
What settings will allow the use of Office for Mac 2016?
I am having a similar problem and trying to open / edit office documents from the browser via WebDAV / Sharepoint plugin. This used to work with prior office versions, but not with Office 2016.
Apparently Microsoft dropped the WebDAV support for Office 2016 which would also affect the itHit library: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2016-macword/using-office-for-mac-2016-to-edit-a-document-from/2aee8656-313a-4c97-8223-9a20373b9891
We have retested IT Hit WebDAV Ajax Library and Ajax File Browser with Office for Mac 2016.
Opening and saving MS Office documents from a web page works just fine. The Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents opened from server successfully, edited and saved back directly to server with no problem.
For testing we were using MS Office for Mac Version 15.22 (160506) with default install options and ajaxbrowser.com running Ajax File Browser v3.0.0.2465 (WebDAV Ajax Library v2.0.1735) as a testing server. The MS Office was installed on a clean Mac v10.11.3 that did not have MS Office 2011 installed previously, so there is no any remains of protocols installed by MS Office 2011. There is also no IT Hit Edit Document Opener installed on this machine.
The confusion around WebDAV being not supported is probably caused by a new MS Office "Save As..." dialog that shows the WebDAV location from which the document is opened but it does not allow browsing WebDAV folders. Even though, saving under new name in the same folder works well in "Save As" dialog.

IIS Express not serving static files to Firefox

I'm using Visual Studio 2013 with IIS Express 8 to develop an application for a local Intranet. This application was built using ASP.NET MVC 4 in Visual Studio 2012 and later migrated to 2013. I had been using Visual Studio Development Server until I migrated to VS2013 with no issues.
After the migration, the application compiles, runs and authenticates fine, but it's not serving Static Files - it just returns an HTTP 500 response with no further details. See image below:
This also happens to Images and CSS files.
What can I check to solve this? Any suggestions?
UPDATE:
The application works fine in Local IIS (version 8).
It works in IIS Express on other PCs.
UPDATE 2:
After further testing, I found out that this only happens to Mozilla Firefox (it works fine in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome) - I didn't notice before because I always use FF. Currently using version 29.
Any ideas?
Finally! I was able to solve this issue with the help of this question.
This was happening because Firefox by default has Windows Integrated Authentication turned off. It doesn't make any sense to me why it works fine in regular IIS or in dynamic files (controller actions, WebApi, etc.), but that's a mystery for another day.
To enable Windows Integrated Authentication I followed this steps:
Type about:config in Firefox's address bar (nav bar)
Search for network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
Double click on network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
Add http://localhost to the list (paste that if it's empty)
After that I just hit F5 in Firefox and everything worked as expected.
This issue is poorly documented, so I wonder if nobody else uses Firefox with MVC to develop web applications using Windows Integrated Authentication?
Have you had a look at this ?
ASP.NET MVC application gives Internal Server Error only when viewed in Firefox
It doesn't explain why it works on IIS but there is a firefox doesn't support Integration Authentication out of the box.
The only thing that seems applicable to your situation is a problem with the install of IIS Express since this is an similar issue to something seen in previous IIS Express versions. I would either re-install it or see if your version of Windows can host IIS 8 in which you would just enable static content.
If this was just a matter of not having static content turned on or permissions for static content, you'd get a 404 or 401 error respectively. Hope this helps...
I'd look in the machine events viewer under application and system to see what the issue is.
Does the IIS serve anything up in the same folder such as .txt files, .html, jpg images?
It could possible be file or folder permission and/or the anonymous user being used to access them under IIS.
My first point would be event viewer though for more detailed information on the 500 error.

Do I need to Give Internet Permission to WP7?

I made a web api and have now hosted it on windows azure. I see my links are working(through browser and fiddler).
However my windows phone 7 app(that I am running through Vs 2010 in the emulator) no longer can seem to connect to my webapi.
Do I need to set something to make it work?
Edit
I unistalled fiddler and now it works. It is something to do with fiddler. I would like to reinstall fiddler but not sure how to fix this problem.s
