2 years ago I've also seen this issue and same fix with users having the error The request was aborted Could not create TLS secure channel. because they were on older Windows builds, one of the solutions is to add it to your PowerShell profile; there's probably a way to do that via the registry as well.
On a similar note a second longer command to run winutil would be nice to have in the README / wiki in case other people come across this problem
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol=[Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12;iex(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/main/winutil.ps1')

when running the command from PowerShell, I kept getting error messages related to the SSL/TTL
I have had a proxy on this older laptop (CovenantEyes) as a parental control for the children, but that was uninstalled to eliminate that as a possibility. I turned off (temporarily) the security DNS (AdGuard) at my firewall.
I had reset windows and my network adapters. Most of the online suggestions were directed at browsers, not powershell.
The only fix I could find (and PowerShell is not my forte) was to add this line, and then the Debloat worked!
I put it in front of the debloat string.
Just a consideration for older laptops that haven't been recently updated or have a parental control (proxy) that may be blocking a https request or consider the debloat string as "dangerous"
Thank you for this program!
