Hi, I am trying to install IJulia on a Windows 10 system with Julia 1.5.0 version. However , I am facing the following issue. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

Can you install any other packages? For example, package `Example`?

```julia
julia> using Pkg

julia> Pkg.add("Example")

Hi, thank you for the reply. I was able to install Example package. When I retry to install IJulia, I get the following error now:

ERROR: Unable to automatically install ‘MbedTLS’ from ‘C:\Users\Nikesh Bansal.julia\packages\MbedTLS\_jll\txOzO\Artifacts.toml’

Are you sure that path `C:\Users\Nikesh Bansal.julia` exists? I think it should read `C:\Users\Nikesh Bansal\.julia` with a `\` between your user name and `.julia`. You should have a directory `.julia` in your user home directory.

Yes, there is a backslash in my name and .julia. It is somehow missed when I copied the error. I checked on the Julia REPL and C drive.

Did you install Julia recently? Can you delete `C:\Users\Nikesh Bansal\.julia` and re-install? I sense that you may have a file permission issue.

Yes, I installed it today itself. I tried to re-install, but it shows the same error.

I read on a forum that someone fixed this issue by changing PkgServer but I am not sure if my issue is the same. Here is the link to that issue:

Sounds like the same issue. Did you run the following as @giordano suggested in that thread?

```julia
using Pkg
pkg"add https://github.com/giordano/DebugArtifacts.jl.git"

```

Here’s what that command looks like when I run it:

```julia
julia> using Pkg

julia> pkg"add https://github.com/giordano/DebugArtifacts.jl.git"

That issue was different. Github was broken when I had the problem.

Yes, probably a different issue, then. The GitHub registry is working:

```julia

So how do I fix this? I am running Julia as an administrator.

I think that may be the source of the problem. You should initially install Julia as administrator, but subsequently install packages as a non-administrative user. Otherwise, some package operations that you run as a regular user may not have permission to read or write certain files or directories in `.julia` or temporary files.

Still does not work. I tried to explicitly install `MbedTLS` package and that works. But now `IJulia` package install is stuck on the next package `ZeroMQ`.

Did you delete `.julia` and the temporary directories and then install the packages as a regular user?

If the error is a file permission error, then you will have to track down and delete all of the files or directories that Julia cannot read or write. If you are an administrator, you shouldn’t encounter these errors since an administrator should have permission to read and write files belonging to any user. I think a good general policy is to run as the administrator only when installing software and otherwise as a regular user. Otherwise, this can lead to the administrator creating files in locations, like user home or temporary directories, that users should have permission to read and write, but may not because the administrator owns them.
