Try to use a shorter title, eg "Windows SSL issues" and then explain more in details if you want after the title with more words 👍

#### Cause
TCP offloading is enabled for Citrix PV drivers in windows, This can cause TSL/SSL problems.

  1. I think TCP offloading is enabled in all PV drivers, not specifically Citrix PV drivers, so maybe no need to put Citrix in there
  2. I would say "[…] in Windows, that could cause TLS/SSD problems" (see the multiple typos and wrong/missed caps)

#### Symptoms
* Remote desktop gives you an error when trying to access the windows VM
* Accessing websites gives TSL/SSL errors.
* Copying files from 'pc1' to the windows VM gets stuck (and might even crash your explorer.exe)

What's pc1 in this context?

* Copying files from 'pc1' to the windows VM gets stuck (and might even crash your explorer.exe)

#### Solution
Disable TCP-offloading. To do this: Go to your Control Panel >> Network and Internet >> Network and Sharing >> Change Adapter Settings >> Right click your PV adapter >> properties. From there you want to go to: Configure >> Advanced, and disable every offloading option.

Take care of caps when needed (or not). Also, maybe new line after the todo this?
