Hi, Just updated to 0.20.0 from 0.19.2, removed the old 0.1.92 directory and changed the path variable to the new installation directory for 0.20.0 and ran the "finish" command. Restarted my computer and tried to start NIM. The Nim command window then just flashes and closes instantly. Any ideas on what I´m doing wrong?

The Nim command window? Are you double clicking nim.exe and hoping the command prompt stays open?

If so, don't do this, run cmd.exe and run nim from there.

That's because Windows Defender is opening it in Sandbox mode, try running as administrator or add it to Windows Defender whitelist.
