Hi folks,
Particle is aware of a recent ESET antivirus update that’s causing issues.
ESET antivirus rolled out a change on April 17 that broke HTTPS for all Node.js programs on Windows.
The workaround until they fix this is to disable SSL protection using these steps
([KB3126] Disable SSL/TLS filtering in ESET Windows home products):
- Open ESET
- Press F5 to go to Advanced settings
- Click Protections -> SSL
- Either disable all SSL protection as shown in [KB3126] Disable SSL/TLS filtering in ESET Windows home products or add the Particle CLI to the Application scan rules as "Ignore".
- The EXEs to add to the Application scan rules are:
- C:\Users
\AppData\Local\particle\node-v16.20.0-windows-x64\bin\node.exe - C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\particle\bin\particle.exe
- Save the settings and reboot.
