It happened again today, and when it did, I noticed that it happened while CSIDE was checking for updates. Hope that helps!

v1.3.5 Hot Fix Available for “local issuer certificate” issue
I’ve just published v1.3.5 with what I hope is a fix for the “local issuer certificate”. Unfortunately, because it’s an issue with auto-update this will need to patched manually.
You can download the patch at https://choicescriptide.github.io/downloads/updates/targets/135.zip.
Note: do not unzip this file!
MacOS Instructions
Rename the zip file to app.nw (be careful you don’t rename it to app.zip.nw).
Find the ChoiceScript IDE application, right-click it and select “Show Package Contents”.
Navigate through the subsequent folder structure to: /Applications/ChoiceScript\ IDE.app/Contents/Resources/ and replace the app.nw in there with the zip file you just renamed.
Windows Instructions
Rename the zip file to package.nw (be careful you don’t rename it to package.zip.nw).
Find the ChoiceScript IDE installation (likely C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\ChoiceScript IDE) and replace the package.nw there with the zip file you just renamed.
If anyone could let me know if this solves the problem that would be great. I’ll post another update if I find an easier way to work around this.
EDIT: Corrected the link.

Hi, thanks for the speedy work! 
I can confirm that this has resolved it for me.

You’ve either not named the file correctly (on Windows, click View on the top menu of explorer, select Show, and check File name extensions), or you haven’t put it in the right location. It should sit next to the ChoiceScript IDE executable.

Thank you, that did the trick! I had file extensions hidden.
