i use the board(arduino uno ),but the software can’t search the board(that time is use the version 0.25.1) .i think the problem is maked by software.so i uninstall the version 0.25.1.then i install the 0.24.1,but i can’t search the board too.after that i can’t not find out the XOD 0.24.1 in procedures and functions.i don’t care it install the 0.25.1 again,then it show this Error in XOD 0.25.1. i try to use my friends computer with his board(arduino uno),it can be search the board and upload.maybe my board have some problem. ---

Do you have the Arduino IDE installed? if you can see connection to the board, the problem may be the installation of XOD, otherwise it is the board or the drivers ---

Install Everything search as admin, search for XOD, and move all to a backup folder. Install again. ---

If a board is shown as “(not installed)”, just go on and hit “Upload.” The IDE will offer to install the missing packages. The UX is counter-intuitive a bit and yet to be fixed. We tried to deliver the feature sooner, thus the result. ---

BTW, what @cesars shows is a tool to upgrade the _already installed_ packages to their newest versions if there were new releases since their installation. ---
