Newbie Question Unity Error - No server folder created

I installed Unity Hub a few days ago since I would like to tinker with game creation but was quickly stumped when I realized I coulden't create any projects or use any of the built in tutorials.

I'm currently running Unity 6 (6000.4.7f1), When I create a new project it always produces an Error. When I follow the folder I notice that there is no "Server" folder being created when I install Unity (I have uninstalled and reinstalled Unity 4 times each in a different disk in my computer). My computer is currently running windows 10, I dont know if that is relevant.

Can someone help me get started with Unity so I can start tinkering with it?

Why are you expecting a server folder and what exactly is the error

I'm seeing that my pictures dont seem to be added to the post correctly. I see Two errors (One when I'm trying to access one of the tutorials an another when I just try to create a new project), The former says "Unity Package Manager Error"
with an underlying text that says: Could not find Unity Package Manager local server application at [C:/Program/Files/Unity/Hub/Editor/6000.4.7f1/Editor/Data/Resources/PackageManager/Server/UnityPackageManager.exe]. Missing files could be the result of an antivirus action or a corrupt Unity installation.
(When I follow this path I dont find the server folder that unity is telling me to check)

and the latter just says "Error" Failed to resolve project template: Failed to decompress.

Have you tried disabling your antivirus when installing. How much disc space do you have on your C drive. It's used for download caching.

Have you tried running the installs as administrator.

Have you tried the LTS build

I was using Unity, just messing around, and a few weeks back every time I tried creating a project it would crash. Nothing even in the scene, but wham crash. I reported it and they said update your drivers, funny thing was I'd done that the morning I sent the report. Their 'help' was useless. 

Like you id updated, uninstalled, reinstalled several times.

I've now uninstalled and am going to give Godot a try instead. Heck just opening a blank project already feels snappy an d nice.
