This seems like a Windows-specific error, where Julia tries to write / read somewhere it doesn't have access to. Does it happen with other packages?

[LawsonSarah]

I tried it with LightGraphs.jl too today and that also failed but previous installed packages are fine.

[LawsonSarah]

I have done the following and it seems to now work: updated packages in Julia removed LightGraphs so I could update ArnoldiMethod.jl Updated Julia to 1.9.3 Added new 1.9.3 kernal to Juypterlab

[gdalle]

Glad it finally works! Must have been a corrupted installation somewhere. Don't forget to replace LightGraphs with Graphs everywhere in your code, otherwise I think you're good 😉

[LawsonSarah]

Thank you. Im newish to Julia and github so appreciate your help!
