More than three days without updating the package registries.  
What to do?

```julia
(@v1.5) pkg> up
No Changes to `C:\Users\Hermesr\.julia\environments\v1.5\Project.toml`
No Changes to `C:\Users\Hermesr\.julia\environments\v1.5\Manifest.toml`
(@v1.5) pkg>rs\Hermesr\.julia\environments\v1.5\Manifest.toml`

```

Normally daily I had updates, in some package !!!

Not sure I understand the question - do you have a specific package in your environment which should update but doesn’t?

Generally the registry should try update after `up`. It doesn’t seem to happen here for some reason. I would try `pkg> registry remove General; registry add General`
