Have you tried the approaches mentioned in https://success.salesforce.com/answers?id=9063A000000pwoMQAQ i.e.,

  • Installing the x64 version of the CLI and changing the PATH environment variable to point to that
  • Rename and move "Salesforce CLI" folder to a path without space in its name
  • Open visual studio code as an administrator
  • Ensuring you have installed the appropriate version of CLI i.e., x64 CLI or x86 that your machine would support

  • In the link you shared: It says to update cli by using this command in cmd: sfdx update » Warning: Attempting to contact update site... sfdx-cli: Updating CLI... ! » Error: S3 host is not reachable. I am geeting this error when run sfdx update command in cmd.

I solved this issue by following three steps:

  1. Install the x64 version of CLI.
  2. Rename the Salesforce CLI directory to SalesforceCLI( white space removed) and update the environment variable to reflect the directory name changes.
  3. Update sfdx. ( That's correct, you might have installed the latest version but still, sfdx update fixed it for me) sfdx update sfdx-cli: Updating CLI from 7.68.0-6ad8607878 to 7.68.6-d37008df83... done
