[BUG] Protocol "https:" not supported. Expected "http:"

[Aw3same]

Upgraded from node 14 to node 15.0.0
Upgraded npm to 7.0.3

Current Behavior:

Running the command
npm install -g npm-check-updates
I get the following that doesn't happened in v6.14

The error log is:

 TypeError [ERR_INVALID_PROTOCOL]: Protocol "https:" not supported. Expected "http:"
    at new NodeError (node:internal/errors:258:15)
    at new ClientRequest (node:_http_client:155:11)

My npm config doesn't change too:

proxy=http://my.proxycompany.com:80/
http-proxy=http://my.proxycompany.com:80
https-proxy=http://my.proxycompany.com:80/
registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
strict-ssl=false

EDIT
Changing registry to http it works, but I don't know why.
registry=http://registry.npmjs.org/

Expected Behavior:

Run npm install and install the library successfully.

Environment:

• OS: Windows 10 v1909
• Node: 15.0.0
• npm: 7.0.3

fix ERR_INVALID_PROTOCOL in NodeJS 15 when connect https url through http proxy

Using HTTPS_PROXY as a workaround for #2060 does not work because of this second bug, outstanding.

I got the same error in my macOS with the same node/npm version.

I've fixed this error by unset all the proxy environment:

unset http_proxy; unset https_proxy; unset all_proxy;

You can run npm install correctly after that.

updating npm to anything newer than 7.0.6 should correct this as that's when we brought in the updated agent-base dependency

change the url to https:// instead of http:// , Mine was type mistake

Downgrading npm from 8.1.4 to 6.14.15 fixes issue.
