Can't start Defold - Windows, PKIX path building failed

Questions

I’ve signed up, downloaded Defold, but whenever I try to start a new project on my Windows 10 v1803 computer, I get this error:

javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

What am I missing here?

Do you have any Antivirus software running? You can check this faq https://github.com/defold/editor2-issues/blob/master/faq/pkixpathbuilding.md
