It would be better to do this in the sketchbook folder. Right-click and create a new folder called tools and open it Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino
#Arduino 1.8.5 download update
Everything under that folder will be lost every time you update to a new version of the Arduino IDE. That is the usual location of the Arduino IDE installation. Under Sketchbook location: change it to say C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino The instructions you posted should only ever work for a single user, unless the Arduino IDE is in portable mode. If you want a single installation to work for multiple users, I would suggest that you try running the Arduino IDE in portable mode: What is the problem you encounter if you don't do that? Please provide the full text of any error messages. Now with 1.8.8, we have to follow these steps for every computer, for every user. That will get your Arduino software fully updated, all boards installed, and ArduBlock included. Click Tools and you should notice that ArduBlock is now installed.Click Tools and make sure you have the correct port selected under Ports.Click Tools and make sure you have the correct board selected under Boards.The path should now look like C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\tools\ArduBlockTool\tool\ ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) Drag the ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) and drop it into the most recent tool folder you just createdĪ.Right-click and create a new folder called tool and open it.Right-click and create a new folder called ArduBlockTool and open it.Right-click and create a new folder called tools and open it.Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino.Open another File Explorer window, folder icon with a blue handle on it.Open your downloads folder and ensure the ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) is there.Go to and click the blue words that say Download it from our server.Under Sketchbook location: change it to say C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino.
