Thank you! I see it fails because it is unable to fetch fs-repo-migrations:

 Error: failed to find latest fs-repo-migrations: http.DefaultClient.Do error: Get "https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmYRLRDKobvg1AXTGeK5Xk6ntWTsjGiHbyNKhWfz7koGpa/fs-repo-migrations/versions": net/http: TLS handshake timeout 

I believe this is a new variant of https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-desktop/issues/1576 but ot fails at TLS handshake level.

@yagamiraku
Are you running any firewall/antivirus software than could be responsible for intercepting web traffic?
Or behind something like The Great Firewall of China?

• Are you able to open https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmYRLRDKobvg1AXTGeK5Xk6ntWTsjGiHbyNKhWfz7koGpa/fs-repo-migrations/versions in your browser?
• How about manually downloading fs-repo-migrations from https://dist.ipfs.io/#fs-repo-migrations (64bit windows)?

[yagamiraku]

The Great Firewall, Yes.
I can't open that version URL with out proxy,
Have any way to use socks5 proxy?

Thank you for your patience

[lidel]

@yagamiraku sadly no built-in socks5 support in ipfs-desktop nor go-ipfs at this time. We are determined to improve the upgrade mechanism, so it does not break for users behind the Great Firewall, but for now you need to fix it manually.

I think the way to fix things for you is to:

1. Manually download the latest version of migration tool (fs-repo-migrations_v1.7.1_windows-amd64.zip) using some proxy
2. Add unpacked fs-repo-migrations.exe to your PATH – on Windows it means copying .exe to C:\Windows\system32\ or manually adding some other directory via this interface
3. Quit IPFS Desktop and start it again

Let us know if this worked.

[yagamiraku]

It worked, thank you.
