ERROR: UndefVarError: Grisu not defined, julia v1.6.3

The following is my versioninfo():

Julia Version 1.6.3
Commit ae8452a9e0 (2021-09-23 17:34 UTC)
Platform Info:
  OS: Windows (x86_64-w64-mingw32)
  CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8565U CPU @ 1.80GHz

I installed Plots simply with (@v1.6) pkg> add Plots, status Plots shows the version is v1.4.4.

But when I tried the basic example

using Plots
x = 1:10; y = rand(10); # These are the plotting data
plot(x, y)

The message ERROR: UndefVarError: Grisu not defined pops up. How to resolve this?

That is a fairly old version. Either install it in a new environment or try pkg> add Plots@1.22.6 to see which packages are holding you back.

@BeastyBlacksmith Thanks for the help. Choosing the version directly doesn't help. The evil seems to be registry as mentioned in the following:

trixi-framework/Trixi.jl#928

Now the package seems to be installed properly.
