The Cypress App could not be downloaded (Can't install via NPM I on WINDOWS 2012)
See original GitHub issueCurrent behavior:
Can’t install any Cypress version.
I do not use a proxy, I can also download the required version via the browser and console.
STR: When I make:
npm install cypress --save-dev
I get:
URL: https://download.cypress.io/desktop/3.7.0?platform=win32&arch=x64
Error: read ECONNRESET
Desired behavior:
The installation of the module should be successful.

I always come back to this issue and find that it’s always the fact there are two instances in the lockfile. I fix it by forcing the correct version via the “resolutions” field in

yarn upgrade cypressThis issue should be closed.
