I am getting an error when I tried to do the “Robocorp: Create Robot” as mentioned in the tutorial [Install Robocorp's RPA software — Visual Studio Code with Robocorp Code extension | Robocorp documentation](https://robocorp.com/docs/courses/beginners-course/set-up-robocorp-lab).

I tried the same steps from my Macbook and its my personal pc. There is no firewall or antivirus installed here.

The same error is getting when I am trying from my official windows laptop which has some proxy in it.  
Anyone can help?
