The process works upto the mingw32.zip
Failed to install platform: 'ATTinyCore:1.5.2'. 13 INTERNAL: Download failed: performing HEAD request: Head "``https://azduino.com/bin/micronucleus/micronucleus-cli-2.5-azd1b-x86_64-mingw32.zip``": dial tcp 3.218.2.136:443: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Hi @giantkiller. This is due to DrAzzy/SpenceKonde not having performed required maintenance on the azduino.com website they use to host the Micronucleus dependency on the ATTinyCore platform.
Try using the provisional Boards Manager URL I created as a workaround for a previous occurrence of the same problem. I provide instructions for doing that here:
The problem has been reported to DrAzzy/SpenceKonde here:
AtTinyCore showed up and all the boards.
Thank you.
I did receive this though:

Platform ATTinyCore:avr@1.5.2 installed
This means an error occurred when Arduino IDE ran the "post-install script" for the ATTinyCore:micronucleus@2.5-azd1b tool. This is a Windows batch file which has the following content:
@echo off
if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "AMD64" (
"%~dp0\Drivers\DPinst64.exe"
) ELSE IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432%" == "AMD64" (
"%~dp0\Drivers\DPinst64.exe"
) ELSE (
"%~dp0\Drivers\DPinst.exe %ARGS%"
)
The purpose of this batch file is to install the Windows drivers for the Digispark boards. These drivers are located in the Drivers subfolder of the Micronucleus uploader tool installation, at the following path on your hard drive:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\ATTinyCore\tools\micronucleus\2.5-azd1b\Drivers
(where <username> is your Windows username)
If looking for it with your file manager or command line, note that the AppData folder is hidden by default. On Windows "File Explorer", you can make it visible by opening the "View" menu, then checking the box next to "☐ Hidden items".
If you have already been successfully uploading to your Digispark board, then this means you already have the necessary drivers and the fact that the post-install script failed won't cause any problems.
Exceedingly well!

>> Micronucleus done. Thank you!
Installed the flashed Digistump and it performs as it should. The initial 6 second pause is gone. A few more code tweaks and I roll into the pcb effort.
I only use the USB to flash. It has no use in the application device.
Thank you all especially Ptillisch and Tuuli in Discord Arduino.
As any experience computer person knows the litmus test is when you get something working, it doesnt truly test out until one powers down and commit to the new process the next day after launching all necessary apps to start the environment. Any failures then can look like BSCP-B)ull S)**t C)omputer P)roblems that need immediate attention because 'It worked before'.
Today I powered everything up, Arduino IDE 2.3.10. Bootburned 4 digistumps then flashed the device application to them. The application device runs exactly as designed. One of the Digistumps was bricked.
You and me both!
I try to avoid making any assumptions about the user's system and level of knowledge in my support efforts. I figure that those who don't need the extra level of detail can always skim over the superfluous content in my responses, while those who do need it will benefit greatly from not being left scratching their head (e.g., "He says there is an AppData folder, but I don't see one???").
Great news! Congratulations on persevering through all the challenges to achieve success in your endeavor.
