Hi, I have recently picked up an Intel Edison Arduino board, and am trying to code with it by using the Arduino IDE. I have, however, ran into an issue that I have searched online for, but can not seem to solve. I am using Windows 8.1 and Java version 8 Update 45.
When opening up the Board Manager, I immediately get the error
"Error downloading http://downloads.arduino.cc/packages/package_index.json"
When checked in the debugger, I receive:

Needless to say, I can not get the Edison board (or any other board besides the default boards) on the Arduino IDE. I can download both files manually. Is there any way I can manually install these files or is there any way I can fix the board manager? Thanks!
