I installed Arduino 1.8.9 and since then have been unable to compile any of my code. I went back to 1.8.8 and had the same problem. 

The verbose output of the compile is attached as "output.txt"

Please click the reply so that you can then attach a .txt with the full output.

One tip is that the avr comes standard with the arduino ide so keep away from board manager.

Delete folder c:\users\yourname\appdata\local\arduino15\packages\arduino then restart the ide

Thanks

Thanks, Tim. It compiles now, but doesn't upload. I am using a Nano and there are only two loaders available:

1) Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328P
2) Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328P (Old Bootloader)

With the first, I get:
 
Uploading 'HC05_Tester' to 'Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328P' using 'COM9'

and then nothing - it just hangs.

With the second, I get:
Uploading 'HC05_Tester' to 'Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328P (Old Bootloader)' using 'COM9'
The uploader returned an error

Try a different usb cable, make sure not using a usb hub

The output submission described at the top of this page will show us which usb driver you have installed.
