Hi, i’m new to the community and this is the first time using Julia languege, so i’m at the beginig.

My problem is the follow:

What happens if you run

Pkg.build(“IJulia”)

as suggested by the error?

ah, now I’m using VS code editor without the jupyter extension, but on the machine i have installed anaconda.
I don’t know if this information could help you.

I don’t know much about Windows 7, and I guess not many people do these days given it’s past its end of life, but did you look at the windows 7 specific installation instructions here Platform Specific Instructions for Official Binaries?

I see your error is powershell related so that might have something to do with it?
