The instructions you posted should only ever work for a single user, unless the Arduino IDE is in portable mode. If you want a single installation to work for multiple users, I would suggest that you try running the Arduino IDE in portable mode:
ARDUINO 1.8.5 COMMENT SECTION EXPAND FULL
What is the problem you encounter if you don't do that? Please provide the full text of any error messages. Now with 1.8.8, we have to follow these steps for every computer, for every user. That will get your Arduino software fully updated, all boards installed, and ArduBlock included. Click Tools and you should notice that ArduBlock is now installed.Click Tools and make sure you have the correct port selected under Ports.Click Tools and make sure you have the correct board selected under Boards.The path should now look like C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\tools\ArduBlockTool\tool\ ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) Drag the ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) and drop it into the most recent tool folder you just createdĪ.Right-click and create a new folder called tool and open it.Right-click and create a new folder called ArduBlockTool and open it.Right-click and create a new folder called tools and open it.Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino.Open another File Explorer window, folder icon with a blue handle on it.Open your downloads folder and ensure the ardublock-161216-carobot.jar (numbers may vary) is there.Go to and click the blue words that say Download it from our server.Under Sketchbook location: change it to say C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino.

ARDUINO 1.8.5 COMMENT SECTION EXPAND INSTALL
Click the Install button for 1.1.9 or newer for SpartFun AVR Boards by SparkFun Electronics.Click Tools – Boards - Board Manager and do a search for Digital Sandbox.Copy and paste it into the open field next to Additional Boards Manager URLs:.Run the installer after the download has completed.Go to and download the Arduino IDE installer appropriate to your Operating System.There are also some unusual cases like VK_4 on Turkish, or VK_1 on Swiss keyboards (where the language info alone would suggest French or German or Italian, not the distinctly different keyboards layouts used in Switzerland than keyboards in France, Germany & Italy).Previously on 1.8.5 we could follow the steps below and get ArduBlock to work on every user on the computer. Whether to use VK_PLUS or VK_EQUALS can be clear in many common cases, but there doesn't seem to be any Java way to perfectly find this info. It also seems to lack any solid info about the actual keyboard layout used. :-(Īs nearly as I can tell, the only solution is to query the Locale or I18N translation info.

After a couple hours, the reality started to sink in that Java doesn't seem to actually have any logic/knowledge of the keyboard layout at all. It returns VK_PLUS, even when a US keyboard is used.ĭigging deeper into this, I found many references to the keyboard layout being handled by the host system. Java's KeyEvent.getExtendedKe圜odeForChar() looked like the most promising option, but it turned out to be an empty promise. Sadly, it seems all roads not from actual keyboard input lead to "KEY_TYPED" codes & events, which don't have any awareness of the keyboard layout. The fix in 1.9 to use KeyEvent.VK_PLUS does not work on US keyboards, and presumably all others where '+' is typed with the shift key (which are the vast majority of the world's keyboards). I spent a couple hours looked into this bug (the keyboard shortcut, not scroll wheel).
