Arduino ide 2.3.3 not starting

Software IDE 2.x
1

Hello,

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. My Arduino worked briefly, but now it won’t start anymore. I suspect something went wrong when I installed Python. I’ve tried reinstalling several times, but nothing seems to work.

Could anyone offer some help?

I’ve included the PowerShell information here.

You have a colon before the https. You can fix it by editing C:\Users\yourUsername\.arduinoIDE\arduino-cli.yaml using a normal text editor.

Close the IDE and open the file; you will find entries as shown below

board_manager:
    additional_urls:
        - http://drazzy.com/package_drazzy.com_index.json
        - https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
        - https://espressif.github.io/arduino-esp32/package_esp32_index.json
        - https://mcudude.github.io/MegaCore/package_MCUdude_MegaCore_index.json

        - https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/package_teensy_index.json

Delete the fault line, save the file and start the IDE again.

I've moved your topic to the dedicated IDE 2.x section.
