Description

Hi,

I'm currently experiencing issues with the TMC intelliJ plugin on Windows.
Various error messages are presented (see screenshots). I am able to submit an exercise, however the server does not respond with a pass or fail.
When I submit a completed exercise, it is accepted/processing (verified on the TMC MOOC site), however the server response appears to time out.
I have reinstalled intelliJ, deleted the intelliJ cache, reinstalled TMC, and logged in and out of TMC within the plugin, however the issue persists.
I have also checked that intelliJ is allowed through Windows Firewall, temporarily disabled Avast, and the issue is still persisting.

Done means the plugin initializes successfully and completed exercises receive a pass or fail response.
