Thank you for your time and for introducing me to Julia’s environment variables. I will have to look into them more. I encountered some other compilation issue when trying to launch a Pluto notebook using Plots.jl (sorry to say I cannot recall the exact details). What worked for me, after reading [ChunXi Zhang’s post](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/help-plots-not-loading/49941/47) was deleting what was in the ~.julia\compiled\v1.6\GR file.
