It’s not too clear what you’re asking. What have you tried already?

ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:

What should I do?

Try

```julia
(v1.0) pkg> activate

(v1.0) pkg> add Plots

I don't know why it's the same mistake：

(v1.0) pkg> add Plots
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
 * Plots (not found in project, manifest or registry)
Please specify by known `name=uuid`.

You probably don’t have the registry for some reason. Can you remove `~/.julia/registries` and try again?

Looks like Plots.jl [hasn’t been tagged for 0.7/1.0 yet](https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Plots.jl/issues/1620).

A workaround seems to be to add the master branch instead:

`(v1.0) pkg> add Plots#master`
