    name: "Default",
    url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }

The dot (.) will cause a conflict. use alpha characters for the parameter name,

routes.MapRoute(
    name: "Default",
    url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

//Catch-All InValid (NotFound) Routes
routes.MapRoute(
    name: "NotFound",
    url: "{*url}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Error", action = "PageNotFound" }
);

It would also allow you to get the parameter in the action as well

public class ErrorController : Controller {
    public ActionResult PageNotFound(string url) { ... }
}

in case you wanted to do anything else with the value. ie logging, audit...etc

Add this in web.config File.

 <system.webServer>
<httpErrors errorMode="Custom" existingResponse="Replace">
  <remove statusCode="404" />
  <error statusCode="404" responseMode="ExecuteURL" path="/Error" />
  <remove statusCode="500" />
  <error statusCode="500" responseMode="ExecuteURL" path="/Error" />
</httpErrors>
<modules>
