failing to download behind corporate proxy

[wwwlicious]

When I try to install intellisense support in VS Code (v1.19.3) I get no output messages indicating failure and bakery is not added.

The dev tools show the following in the log >
ERR Failed to download Cake Bakery from NuGet: Error: self signed certificate in certificate chain
which is the proxy doing it's thing.

When this happened with browsing/installing vs code extensions, the following was needed in my settings.json which resolved the issue.
"http.proxyStrictSSL": false,

However the cake plugin for adding both debug or intellisense does not work due to certificate issues and the above setting has no effect.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both cake and c# extensions in case is was anything corrupted but to no avail.

I know, its kind of late but may be will help anyone - you can try to add Cake.Bakery at packages.config like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<packages>
    <package id="Cake" version="0.23" />
    <package id="Cake.Bakery" version="0.2.0" />
</packages>

Then run your build.ps1 and it should work. It's workaround of course, but it works at least for me.
