I'm trying to update the pack for STM32G0B1. If I use Pack Installer and use the Update button, I get the following error "Encountered an improper argument":
If I download the pack and use the PackUnzip I get the error "Cannot copy license file to ".Download" folder"
Any ideas?
Hi Tim,
I tested, and I was able to download and install this pack without issue.
Looking at your first screenshot, I see "ERRORS" in the Pack pane in the background. Select Packs > Check for Updates. Does this complete successfully?
Also I notice that your packs are being installed into the install folder for the tools. Do you have write permission to this folder? Packs are usually installed to \\AppData\Local\Arm\Packs
You can set this in the Pack installer, File > Settings > CMSIS Pack Repository
Are you using the latest version of MDK (5.41)?

Thanks for your reply. The errors are all in packs that I don't use. The check for updates runs ok for other packs. Permissions are all ok. I managed to get round the issue by manually unzipping the pack into the folder.
I also cannot duplicate this issue, even with older versions of the Pack Installer. Wich MDK version do you use?

Pack files are renamed ZIP files and therefore you can extract the files manually, but it is also necessary to copy the pdsc file into the right folder and some other things more. You could try to use the command line utility PackUnzip.exe which you can find in the UV4 folder:
