I see that you are using the `General` registry within JuliaPro. By default, JuliaPro uses the `JuliaProRegistry`. What steps did you take to install the `General` registry?

Please execute following commands to fix this issue

```julia
Pkg.Registry.add(Pkg.RegistrySpec(url = "$(Pkg.pkg_server())/registry/JuliaPro", uuid = "32d90280-1a8c-50bf-8a59-7bd9ce241c9a"))
Pkg.add("PkgAuthentication")

```

You maybe asked to authenticate after executing above commands. If you’re planning on using the IDE in your new environment, I would suggest you to execute following commands as well.

```julia
Pkg.add("Atom")
Pkg.add("Juno")

```
