Hi. I ran into a problem when I start Lens.  
 ![photo_2023-06-14_16-12-04](https://discuss-k8slens-dev.s3.dualstack.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/1X/19fae3912b2afedd90aa8af186fe9a60efe2c167.jpeg)

It works in the morning, but this problem suddenly appeared in the evening. I nothing changed in the ‘hosts’ file and network settings.

What could I do to fix it?  
I tried: reinstall lens, reboot computer, try to launch lens without vpn

logs:

Добрый день! Подскажите, проблема была решена? У меня такая же ошибка. При удалении и установке - не помогает. Ошибка сохраняется

Добрый день! Проблема решилась сама с собой. Похоже на проблемы с корпоративными разрешениями, так как похожая проблема наблюдалась у некоторых коллег. Рекомендую обратиться в ваш ИТ-департамент
