Node-RED v0.19.4 3 minute delay during startup on windows

Finally - node-red startup 3 minutes faster!

For anyone behind a proxy having a 3 minute delay starting node-red...

  • Using notepad/text editor, open node-red.cmd (look in you NPM Global folder)
  • Add the following line to the top of the file (before any other command)
    SET NO_UPDATE_NOTIFIER=1
  • Start node-red using the cmd file
    node-red.cmd
  • Enjoy the extra 3 mins :slight_smile:

Thanks to @hotNipi, @KarnanKurup for pointing me in the right direction .
