After some problems with Juno, I tried uninstalling Julia and Juno (including deleting related folders under Users: “.atom” and “AppData/Local/Julia”) and installing from scratch.
The first difficulty was that Pkg.update() asked to run Pkg.init() first, but this fails with
ERROR: GitError(Code:ERROR, Class:OS, Failed to mark Git repository folder as hidden: )
This was fixed by rebooting and running Pkg.init() again (I also tried manually marking the folder as hidden, but that did not help before rebooting, so I don’t know if it mattered).
After installing the uber-juno package and restarting Atom, the new REPL view says “Press Enter to start Julia”. When pressing Enter I got Starting Julia..., but no further output. Pressing Enter again yields more copies of the Starting Julia... message.
After restarting Atom and trying again, I get the following:
Press Enter to start Julia. Starting Julia...

Running Pkg.add("Atom") in Julia yields the same error.
Any ideas how to proceed would be appreciated.
