Bower calls blocked by corporate proxy

Question

I\'m trying to use Bower for a web app, but find myself hitting some sort of proxy issues:

D:\\>bower search jquery
bower retry         Request to https:/         


        

Answer 1

In case it helps someone, I had a 'bower blocked by group policy' error.

Solution was to make an exception in CryptoPrevent, a application installed on our company computers to prevent crypto lockers.
