Following the new Raspberry Pi Pico/Pico W with MicroPython course ebook and I encounter failed certificate errors when trying to install packages in Thonny 4.1.4, can someone please point me in the right direction to update the certificates on a windows 10 machine. I don’t want to temporarily bypass the check. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I solved the issue following the instructions given here.
https://github.com/thonny/thonny/issues/1986
You have to install a SSL certificate. Im my case this worked well, but I simply tried on my Win10 PC… If you can trust that file to download and install – I did it. Otherwise you have to understand in depth what the code really does. So no guarantee from my side.
Best regards, Dirk

Hi.
Thanks for sharing the solution.
But, please take into account that when following our projects you must install the libraries exactly as we show. Installing similar packages via the package manager might install a different library.
