Morning @nmatharoo,

It’s not too easy to tell based on the provided screenshot. Could you please copy the entire output of that terminal so we can get the full context of what has happened.

A potential cause to rule out would be whether you have sufficient free disk space on your PC. Please confirm that you have at least 10gb free (ideally more than that)?

Hi. Reinstalled everything again. It worked right after installation.. However, I opened it again today and it stopped working. Kindly assist in resolving this.

`Pkg.add("Pumas")` is not the correct way to install any of the Pumas versions.

What is the output of `Pkg.status()`?
