Cannot run program "{runtime.tools.avrdude.path}/bin/avrdude"

[ghost]

I'm trying to compile the sketch for https://github.com/Imposter/brite-arduino and it requires constexpr so I am trying to use the Arduino beta. Unfortunately, it does not seem to be able to find its own tools.

Possibly a duplicate of #7082 .
Would you mind adding the information about your system (OS, other versions of the IDE installed alongside, version of AVR core reported by Library Manager) there? Thanks!

I have similar error when attempting to upload to the Adruino. Already spent 4 hours researching and trying to fix this error to no avail.
Can someone please provide useful suggestion?
