@abdultechguy999 Can you share the Board URL you using? it might be the wrong board URL!

[abdultechguy999]

@salmanfaris I tried three types which I all found on the net
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_dev_index.json

https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json

All I keep getting is an error message
'Error downloading [the link]'

@abdultechguy999 It looks like Arduino IDE having trouble to connect internet, can you try to download any other board from the board manager or library from the library manager!

@abdultechguy999 usually https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json this works while installing through boards manager. But I faced the same issue some times. it might be due to a couple of reasons.

1. Bad Internet connectivity

2. The license of the https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json might be expired(If this is the reason you can't do anything but just wait until they re-activate the license)

I remember there is a way to install the board files offline by downloading from some github repos.

All the best.
