PCF (Powerapps Component Framework) Error npm install : ETIMEDOUT Error while installing Node packages on Windows

Hello Experts,

I am trying to install node packages on my windows machine using npm from a fresh install of node.

however, I am getting ETIMEDOUT errors. I checked few other stackoverflow questions with similar problem and almost all of them are related to problems when behind a proxy. Same is not the case with me. My system is not behind any proxy server. Can someone help me with resolving it.

I ran the below highlighted commands and it doesn't work, Please suggest me resolve the issue.

I'm a noob at this stuff. So here's some suggestions...

Definitely not running a VPN, filtering or firewall issues (e.g would it be worth adding Node.js to the firewall authorized applications)?

Try setting the proxys to null

npm config set proxy null
npm config set https-proxy null

Have you seen this thread related to IPv6: https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4163 some people have disabled it https://networking.grok.lsu.edu/Article.aspx?articleid=17573 some people have also tried changing/updating their version of node or even reinstalling entirely.

There's one workaround listed here that might be worth a shot: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46624465/npm-install-is-giving-error-connect-etimedout-without-proxy
