/c/devkitPro/devkitARM/ doesnt exist

[Virtual-Wii noob]

I am trying to make a file on windows ive tried installing and reinstalling over and over and never getting the option to install devkitarm I am extremely frustrated now and about to punch a hole in my computer whenever I try to install using pacman it says the command sudo doesn't exist ive tried replacing runas but alas it doesn't work so I cant install pacman and if its already installed I cant use it to install devkitarm heres a couple of screenshots to prove (I have hidden files on) >:[ I have tried every solution that have ever existed and it still wont work ive been trying for about 6 hours found someone who was having a similar problem but it was when they actually had a checkbox for devkitarm but no there is none

Code: Select all

makefile:13: /c/devkitPro/devkitARM/3ds_rules: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target '/c/devkitPro/devkitARM/3ds_rules'.  Stop.

Have you tried following the Getting Started guide? Note that the Windows installer will ask you which systems you want to develop for - you should make sure you're ticking the checkbox for 3DS.

i did and mysys2 launches and works but when i make it says

Code: Select all

makefile:13: /c/devkitPro/devkitARM/3ds_rules: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target '/c/devkitPro/devkitARM/3ds_rules'.  Stop.

I checked and no surprise at all the folder wasn't there I checked every option and there was no devkitarm option
I have also tried using the binary files and followed the getting started

There isn't a devkitARM checkbox. You're supposed to check the consoles you want to develop for. It looks like you haven't checked any checkbox at all.

Still, your installation can be salvaged. This command should work for installing the necessary packages for 3DS development:

Code: Select all

pacman -S 3ds-dev

that was the update i checked every box even tho im only doing it for 3ds i checked every box in installation and also tried once only checking 3ds

What you're describing makes no sense. You shouldn't get that error with a stock install.

Can you use the uninstaller to uninstall everything then check the c:\devkitPro folder is empty before reinstalling from scratch. Watch carefully for any error messages and report back.
