Error: 13 INTERNAL: library not valid

Hello,
I am trying to install a library from a ZIP file from the link below,

but when I try installing the library I get the following errror:

Error: 13 INTERNAL: La instalación de la librería no fue exitosa: moving extracted archive to destination dir: library not valid

I got the ZIP file by clicking the "<>Code" button -> Donwload ZIP option from the provided link (see above) and saving the ZIP file in my PC
The library seems to be 12 years old and I am using version 2.3.2 of Arduino IDE.
Any ideas of how I can install this library?
Thank you very much for your help.

  1. Extract the zip to a convenient location.
  2. Navigate into the extracted zip.
  3. You will find a directory PID_AutoTune_v0.
  4. Copy that directory into the libraries directory of the sketchbook folder.

That is a very old library, I just searched the IDE Library Manager for PID and got the latest 1.2 ver same author.

Thank you, could you please provide the link to the version you mention?

Thanks!, I will try that!

It's the same author and is now in the arduino.cc site. There are also more similar libraries.
