i have just started learning arduino and when i try to vertify my script it says: Compilation failed. Please report this issue on our forum. so here i am.
the code i was trying to wertify was a simple blink code:
when i try to upload it simply says: open/mnt/create-efs/website/41/51/4151676578fbb4480ace502481e6f1d3:cpmanasse/compilations/firstscript.hex: no such file or directory.
The sketch is okay. It seems that your Arduino IDE can not run very well.
If you have a Windows 10 operating system, preferably without Java installed, download the newest Arduino IDE (1.8.5 at this moment from here: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software) and install it in a normal way, then it should work.
I think the Arduino IDE via the Windows Store has version 1.8.6.
There is a way to install it in a "portable" way. That might help if you want to keep the Arduino IDE locally.
Tell us how you have installed it.
There is an other option. At Tinkercad.com, there is a section for "Circuits" where you can select an Arduino Uno board and select "Text" for the code and run your sketch. Then you will see the led blinking.
Perhaps it was not well tested with Mac or Chrome Book.
I have tried the Arduino Create a few times with Windows 10. It worked, but I returned to the downloaded program.
Use the installer, or download the zip-file and unpack it and run the Arduino IDE from there (you could make a shortcut for the Desktop). When using the zip-file, you might have to install the drivers (also in the zip-file).
