I recently install Julia 1.5.3 and I am having issues getting it to start using Juno/Atom:

julia\>  
Julia has exited.  
Press Enter to start a new session.  
Starting Julia…  
I saw several discussions on this issues, but without any clear solution. Any feedback to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Not a fix, but have you tried VSCode? Due to diminishing external investment in Atom, the Juno developers have joined forces with the VSCode developers: [JuliaCon 2020 | (Juno 1.0) VSCode for Julia 1.0 | Sebastian P., Shuhei K., David A. - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQ7D1lXt3GM)

Thanks. Yes, I started using VSCode a couple of days age, and it works nicely for my simulations.
