Hi I was trying to install Arduino IDE but it won't start. I only see the logo in the center of the window. I'm on Windows 10 and Arduino IDE 2.0.4

Hi @hermess_wavess. I'm going to ask you to post the full content of the logs. They might contains some additional information that might help us to identify the problem.

Please do this:

  1. Start Windows "File Explorer".
  2. Open the Arduino IDE installation folder.
    (usually C:\Program Files\Arduino IDE or C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE).
  3. In the folder listing of the Arduino IDE installation folder, hold the Shift key while clicking the right hand button on the mouse.
  4. From the context menu, click "Open PowerShell window here".
    Windows PowerShell will now open with the current directory set to the Arduino IDE installation folder.
  5. Type the following command:
    & ".\Arduino IDE"
  6. Press the Enter key.
    Debug output should now be printed to the PowerShell window as Arduino IDE starts.
  7. Wait until you are sure the IDE startup has gone into the hang state
    (as indicated by no additional output being printed to the terminal).
  8. Switch back to the PowerShell window if the Arduino IDE window took the focus.
  9. Right click on the title bar of the PowerShell window.
    This will open a context menu.
  10. Select Edit > Select All from the context menu.
    This will select all the text in the PowerShell window.
  11. Press Ctrl+C.
    This will copy the contents of the PowerShell window to the clipboard.
  12. Open a forum reply here by clicking the Reply button.
  13. Click the </> icon on the post composer toolbar.
    This will add the forum's code block markup (```) to your reply to make sure the error messages are correctly formatted.
    Code block
  14. Press Ctrl+V.
    This will paste the output into the code block.
  15. Move the cursor outside of the code block markup before you add any additional text to your reply.
  16. Click the Reply button to post the output.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.

OK, unfortunately it didn't reveal any more information.

The Arduino IDE application doesn't use Python, so I suspect the error is related to one of the 3rd party boards platforms you have installed.

In order to proceed with the investigation, I need to know which platforms you have installed. The easiest way to determine that is to run a command from PowerShell. I'll provide instructions:

  1. Start Windows "File Explorer".
  2. Open the Arduino IDE installation folder:
    C:\Users\herme\AppData\Local\Programs\arduino-ide
  3. In the folder listing of the Arduino IDE installation folder, hold the Shift key while clicking the right hand button on the mouse.
  4. From the context menu, click "Open PowerShell window here".
    Windows PowerShell will now open with the current directory set to the Arduino IDE installation folder.
  5. Type the following command:
    resources\app\node_modules\arduino-ide-extension\build\arduino-cli.exe core list
  6. Press the Enter key.
  7. Right click on the title bar of the PowerShell window.
    This will open a context menu.
  8. Select Edit > Select All from the context menu.
    This will select all the text in the PowerShell window.
  9. Press Ctrl+C.
    This will copy the contents of the PowerShell window to the clipboard.
  10. Open a forum reply here by clicking the Reply button.
  11. Click the </> icon on the post composer toolbar.
    This will add the forum's code block markup (```) to your reply to make sure the error messages are correctly formatted.
    Code block
  12. Press Ctrl+V.
    This will paste the output into the code block.
  13. Move the cursor outside of the code block markup before you add any additional text to your reply.
  14. Click the Reply button to post the output.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.

Thanks for your help, I solved the error after several hours. There was a problem with enviroment variables and python(I don't know why that affected Arduino IDE to be honest). I did a clean reinstall and now it's working. :slight_smile:

I'm glad it is working now. Thanks for taking the time to post an update!

Regards,
Per
