"Unable to find the Arduino package path, please install the lastest Arduino package for Devkit"

Hi, I have installed arduino-1.8.5-windows ( I also tried arduino-1.8.6-windows) to the path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino" and I also set the "arduino.path": "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino", never the less I get "Unable to find the Arduino package path, please install the lastest Arduino package for Devkit.". In addition, I get very often "java.lang.Exception: Error downloading http://downloads.arduino.cc/packages/package_index.json" when e.g. I open a project. Already try to uninstall all and delete

C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Arduino15 C:\Users{username}.vscode C:\Users{username}\Documents\IoTWorkbenchProjects C:\Users{username}\Documents\ArduinoData C:\Users{username}\Documents\Arduino

no change.

Close it as the problem is solved by the manual installation guide of IoT DevKit.
