HELP ME!!!  
I deleted the `.julia` folder.  
And now I can’t install anything. Previously, before deleting the .julia folder, in Julia 1.6.0 at least some packages were installed.  
I had an experience very similar to [JuMP installation issue in Julia v1.6 Domains Optimization (Mathematical) package jump](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/jump-installation-issue-in-julia-v1-6/58721)  
unfortunately I uninstalled Julia 1.5.4; being installed was that I managed to install some packages in Julia 1.6.0 and others not!
