Continuing the discussion from libcurl SSL errors on Windows:
Like @klaasb01, I work within a corporate network with an SSL intercept and was able to get downloads working by adding the following line to my .Rprofile:
Sys.setenv(R_LIBCURL_SSL_REVOKE_BEST_EFFORT=TRUE)
I discovered this after finding and reading the following links:
- .rs.secureDownloadMethod() needs to stop using wininet for newer R · Issue #10163 · rstudio/rstudio · GitHub
- .rs.secureDownloadMethod() needs to stop using wininet for newer R · Issue #10163 · rstudio/rstudio · GitHub
To the 736+ other folks who came across libcurl SSL errors on Windows first, I hope this helps you!
Sorry forgot to mention: this only works for R-4.2.2 and later.

Kevin
