Flutter installation not working?

Question

I have installed the flutter folder in Program Files (x86) and have added the .../flutter/bin directory to path. Running flutter doctor in the flutter_console.bat window or just a normal command prompt window gives nothing and running as admin in either gives me the error:

Updating flutter tool...
\flutter\.pub-cache was unexpected at this time.

What do I do? Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer 1

You shouldn't put Flutter in Program Files. These folders are not writeable by non-Admin users so may fail when trying to write files if you're not running your console/editor as Admin.

Answer 2

Cut flutter folder from Program Files (x86) to Program Files. It has problem with x86 but works fun in x64 directory. And update the environment variables with the new path.
