Expected Behavior

1. ** I run yarn add electron to install electron but exited with the following errors:**

1. Then I set strict-ssl to false of both npm and yarn, and tried yarn add electron again, don’t work.

2. Then I look into node_modules/electron/install.js and added some console.log('--',xx), and run node .\install.js, got some output:

1. ** I checked the cache folder ‘C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\electron\Cache’ and found the target version has already cached (why don’t it just use the cached zip file?). **

2. **Note that I have set ELECTRON_MIRROR to https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/electron/ of both npm and yarn. **

3. Then I deleted ELECTRON_MIRROR config item of both npm and yarn, still don’t work.

4. Note: expect for electron, other packages can be installed normally.

5. I use npm to install electron, it also failed with this errors:

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! electron@11.0.4 postinstall: `node install.js`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the electron@11.0.4 postinstall script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

Any help is appreciated!!!
