I’m trying to install PlatformIO, but on two different WIn10 Machines (one of them completely new out of the box) Install stops with the Window “PlatformIO IDE: Installing - Please be patient and let the installation complete.” on downloading Project Examples and I can’t do anything in Atom at all.
Atom Install is from today as well.
Since it was running for hours in the background now and I didn’t find anything about the issue I finally post it here…
Funny, you should post this issue. I had the same problem five minutes back. Except this was on a MacOS fresh install.
I just removed the .platformio and .atom folders and restarted the IDE and reinstalled the platformio-ide package.
It took some time but successfully completed the installation.
As result, they broke a lot of packages that depend on node-tar. We have made quick release today and reverted back to previous stable version. You need to upgrade PlatformIO IDE to 2.0.0-alpha.8.
The simple way, just navigate to USER_HOME_DIR/.atom/packages and remove platformio-ide folder. After that, start Atom, navigate to Settings > Install and install platformio-ide again.
