I’m trying to use plots on Julia-1.8.2 ond Windows 10 but I get the following error: julia> using Plots julia> plot(sin) connect: No error GKS: can’t connect to GKS socket application GKS: Open failed in routine OPEN_WS GKS: GKS not in proper state. GKS must be either in the state WSOP or WSAC…

Can you check what version of Plots is currently installed? ]st Plots If it’s less than v1.35.2, can you try updating it? ]up If it’s the latest version, can you try an older version? e.g. ]add Plots@v1.30

I had v13.2 installed so I downgraded to v1.30 and now it works! Thanks!

Ahhh crap. Just ran into this myself :laughing:

We narrowed it down to GKS problem on Win11 · Issue #475 · jheinen/GR.jl · GitHub , but we need help from people running windows to debug this. If we fix this in GR it shall fix the Plots bug.

I’m a Windows person, seeing what I can do.

The issue should be fixed by GR@0.69.4, @midori , please update and confirm that the issue is resolved. Thanks @BioTurboNick for helping fixing this.

On your screenshots, your artifacts folder is empty, this explain the error loading the dlls. Delete it, and then run pkg> instantiate: it should download the artifacts and you should see bin and / or lib with dlls in it.

My artifacts folder is not empty, but the folder with the name e40afe22fcfc9fe1caea4af17a4016e7ef36cd66 is totally empty. So shall I delete artifacts or e40afe22fcfc9fe1caea4af17a4016e7ef36cd66?
