Hi @dura3k

Please rename the folder:
%userprofile%\.nuget\packages
to
%userprofile%\.nuget\packagesBackup

and restart Studio to allow it to re-download all packages.

Could you maybe look into the Windows Event Viewer to try and find the issue?

Please also check your security software logs. Is it possible that the files are blocked by something during the installation?

Another idea is to close Studio and clear the cache folder:
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\UiPath\.cache\

Hello,
I just looked at the logfile, I noticed there 2 errors

11:56:19.1782 => [INFO] [UiPath.Studio.exe] [1] The settings file ‘C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\UiPath\UiStudio.v2.settings’ could not be found.

Hi @dura3k

At the risk of sounding obvious, you will need to figure out what is blocking the access to the files.
This can be user user’s policy or potentially some antivirus/security software.
