Unable to use Plots

I tried downloading Plots package. But during installation, it stopped so I exited. Then when I wanted to repeat the installation it succeeded. But when I want to use Plots it gives me errors like that:

The following package names could not be resolved:
 * gr (not found in project, manifest or registry)

What happens when you do ] build GR as the error message says?

@nilshg It says Building GR → C:\Users\Uporabnik\.julia\scratchspaces\44cfe95a-1eb2-52ea-b672-e2afdf69b78f\b83e3125048a9c3158cbb7ca423790c7b1b57bea\build.log. So is that good? What would the next thing to do be?
I tried running using Plots, but got Info: Precompiling Plots [91a5bcdd-55d7-5caf-9e0b-520d859cae80] @ Base loading.jl:1317

And what if you now do using Plots in a fresh REPL session?

Thanks @nilshg it helped
