I downloaded the ProBlocks 1.0.0.17 .exe installer from https://github.com/automationdirect/...locks/releases , and am getting an error that says "Arduino software not found " ( https://i.imgur.com/bfnveCl.png ). I am running it as administrator and I do not have any instances of the Arduino IDE software open while attempting to install. I have ver 1.8.12 of the Arduino IDE installed at C:\Program Files\Arduino, I have already been programming my P1AM-100 for a couple of days now, and was interested in checking out the productivity blocks software. Additionally, I am using Windows 10 on a 32-bit system. Maybe there is some compatibility issue there? Any help would be appreciated.

    I have been able to verify that the productivity blocks installation will not run on a windows 10 32bit VM. I will put in an issue to the ProBlocks github repo. https://github.com/AutomationDirect/...locks/issues/3

    Thank you for finding this.
