Arduino IDE installed as an App (in Windows 10), so this path ("arduino.path": "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino",) doesn't exist, what is the correct one?

Install the normal IDE. Not the windows APP neither the WEB.

Then you can use "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino"

  • Is there a particular process to make sure you're installing the full IDE and not the app or web versions?

  • It is easier to say: they are just different.

  • Use this arduino.cc/download_handler.php

I had the same issues. The Windows App doesn't seem to work (at least not for me).

Download the full IDE installer as described below:

Install it, then your PATH will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino and things like the VSCode extension will work. Good luck!
