Hi

I just installed Julia for the first time, and I am trying to install atom and Juno. I downloaded and install Atom and Juno through the Atom package manager. However when i try to lunch Juno i get the following error:

Activating environment at `C:\Users\jeppe\.julia\environments\v1.2\Project.toml`  
Cloning default registries into `C:\Users\jeppe\.julia`  
Cloning registry from “[GitHub - JuliaRegistries/General: The official registry of general Julia packages](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General.git)”  
ERROR: LoadError: SystemError: opening file “C:\Users\jeppe\.julia\registries\General\Registry.toml”: No such file or directory

Can anyone help with this?

Delete `C:\Users\jeppe\.julia\registries` amd try again? Looks like you got a corrupt registry.

Did you know someone implemented `Pkg` support for this? 😉

```julia
pkg> registry remove General

```

Yea, but I am pretty sure that requires a parsable `Registry.toml` file.
