I was working with Julia on  
atom and suddenly I go this  
error message:

`LoadError: Failed to precompile Atom [c52e3926-4ff0-5f6e-af25-54175e0327b1] to C:\Users\mayar.madboly\.julia\compiled\v1.4\Atom\w9XOh_U5N9T.ji.`

What can fix it, pls?

Try updating your package manager maybe. You haven’t provided much information so it’s difficult to help.
