Arduino AVR Boards and when i start installing i got this error msg  
(Error  
`C:\Users\mohammed.ammar\AppData\Local\Programs\XOD IDE\resources\arduino-cli.exe --config-file=C:\Users\MOHAMM~1.AMM\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino-clie1LSQi\.cli-config.yml core install arduino:avr` failed with code 1

Hello!

Are there any extra details _before_ the message in the log? Please copy/paste the log as is here.

What looks suspicious is that `MOHAMM~1.AMM` in the path. What file system do you use? FAT 32? I’m not sure it affects the process, but could you try to retry on behalf of a Windows user whose name is shorter than 8 characters? In other words, could you create a user “Mohammed”, for example, login and check XOD out there?
