I can't install the tool chain. The thing is telling me to install some thing called chocolatey. I can't install this

mike leppard

I can't install the tool chain.

Looks like I have to install something called chocolatey?

I can't install chocolatey. I tried the chocolatey website for help and was baffelled by the complexity and install options for this.

Please send me the toolchain as a file that I can install without the chocolatey thing.

I have the nRF52840dk to evaluate your bluetooth devices, but can't even get past this stage:

If I can't install the toolchain then the kit is useless and will go in the bin.

    Hi Simon,

    Try running one of these commands before running Get-ExecutionPolicy:

    • Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned
    • Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process

    Then continue with all the steps shown below.

    If that doesn't solve your problems, please tell me.

    I am sorry for the struggles, but I will help you getting this to work and will not give up until you've made it.

    Best regards,

    Simon

    Try this:

    • Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

    Instead of:

    • Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

    Notice the difference, you didn't include the "https://"

    Best regards,

    Simon

    Try running this instead:

    It seems like there are some problems with installing python 3.8.2 with choco at the moment: https://github.com/chocolatey/chocolatey.org/issues/765#issuecomment-591299159
