Error: unable to verify the first certificate / How to trust all certificates?

Question

When I try to install an extension I get this error:

unable to verify the first certificate

I already know that the problem is our internal network structure, which wraps every SSL Certificate with our own and not every application trusts our certificate.

Is it possible to set the property Trust all SSL certificates in Visual Studio Code?

Thanks

Had the same problem.

Adding environment variable

NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0

fixed it. Took this answer from here: Ignore invalid self-signed ssl certificate in node.js with https.request?

Thanks. This fixed the SSL problem. Unfortunately i get another error: `end of central directory record signature not found`. I think it's due to our company's proxy server. \*sigh\* – mfreiholz Nov 24 '15 at 06:03

Where do you go to set this setting? – ashlar64 Jul 24 '20 at 15:13

My solution was to add the following to user settings ( File -> Preferences -> User Settings)

"http.proxyStrictSSL": false
