Resharper Extension Manager is empty

Question

I'm working with VS2103 Update 5 and RS 10, the feed for the extensions is https://resharper-plugins.jetbrains.com/api/v2/curated-feeds/Wave_v3.0/ and also tried changing https to http.

any time I open Resharper Extensions Manager, I get the extensions window blank and nothing loads.

I'm working under a proxy, but all of my teammates have the same proxy configuration and I'm the only one that have this issue. I used fiddler to check the request, but no request is made at all.

Not sure if VS is blocking something or what's happening, but I've tried many things like updating to VS2015, uninstall and reinstall RS, downgrade RS from 10 to 9.2.

you have any idea of what could be happening here?

This is almost certainly due to a proxy issue. It looks like ReSharper use nuget to deliver their packages. The old version of nuget was pretty much unstoppable at getting through the corporate proxy, but it seems like the new dotnetcore version has a bug in it that means that it can't get through the proxy for a lot of people: https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/2190. They seem to have recently closed the bug, but I've not tested to see if it works. It didn't a few months ago on our proxy which was an epic world of pain. Basically until they start referencing a version of the nuget dll with the fix it won't work.

However, you can manually download the package from their website and use that instead: https://resharper-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241675-Offline-plug-in-installation-process

When I did this I still got some warnings, but the extension (StyleCop) seemed to work OK.
