I had used Julia some months back for a project, and didn't use it since. I hadn't faced problems back then. But now, I absolutely am not able to install any package.
(@v1.5) pkg> add Distributions
Resolving package versions...
ERROR: Unsatisfiable requirements detected for package Distributions [31c24e10]:
Distributions [31c24e10] log:
├─Distributions [31c24e10] has no known versions!
└─restricted to versions * by an explicit requirement — no versions left
Any package I install, I am getting the same error. How do I fix it?
This is the status of Pkg:

it looks like you have a missing or corrupt package registry. The package manager will reinstall it for you if you delete .julia/registries and try to add the package again.
You can do this from within julia
rm(joinpath(homedir(), ".julia", "registries"), recursive=true, force=true)
