Seems like the bundle from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-25/
has a SSL problem https://github.com/jcs090218/setup-emacs-windows/issues/9

I think jcs090218  (setup-emacs-windows owner) is right in that the issue,
shouldn't be patched in CI if it can be fixed in the release. Or maybe the
problem is in Windows configs and I should ask GitHub dudes to add
something to the Windows test runner install. I'm confused D:

This never worked on Windows, and never will.

You must have an Emacs built with GnuTLS to have HTTPS connections
from Emacs on MS-Windows.  Please get a later release from the GNU FTP
site, it should have GnuTLS built-in.

I'm therefore closing this bug report now.

There will be no further releases of emacs-25 in any case.

I commented on the github issue. I donʼt beleive this is a bug in
emacs.
