If you've installed powerbi-visuals-tools globally (i.e. with the npm -g flag), this can be worked-around by browsing to your node installation's node_modules/powerbi-visuals-tools/certs folder, where you can find the cert generated by the --install-cert command, e.g.:
(Note that your location may be different to mine)
Hopefully this should be all you need to proceed. If not, then you're best to approach the custom visuals team directly at [email protected], and they may be able to assist further.
