Hi @gamer123454321 ,

The warning message that you’re having, is telling you that there are at least two different places in your code, where the same related Menu item is being defined.

You should search for them and remove the duplicates to avoid this specific warning.

Good luck with it!

I deleted the codes one by one in Admob script and end up I deleted all but the warning still there until I un-import the External Dependency Manager plugin completely to have no more error. hahaha. Have to start all over again.

Getting the External Dependency Manager through “Game package Registry by Google” then deleting the External Dependency Manager in the Assets folder seems to fix the problem. You can add “Game package Registry by Google” to the Package Manager by going to “Project Settings”->“Package Manager” then adding a new entry with the following settings.

Name: Game Package Registry by Google
URL: https://unityregistry-pa.googleapis.com
Scope(s): com.google

Once you “Save” the above entry in “Project Settings”->“Package Manager” you will be able to choose “My Registries” in the Package Manager window where you can choose “Unity Registries”, “In Project”, etc. After “My Registries” is selected you should see a “Google LLC” category with a a bunch of packages to choose from. External Dependency Manager will be one of these items. Install it then remove the External Dependency Manager in the Assets folder. Once the External Dependency Manager in the Assets folder is removed and the “Google LLC”->“External Dependency Manager” is loaded the errors should be gone.

No, don’t install Game Package Registry by Google through Package Manager, this way of installing will soon be deprecated in May, Google has said so. Install the package through unitypackage from the official website.

Oh thank you, I had the problem today I can’t build on Unity Cloud Build. I will try remove it from Package Manager.

Does that mean we need to erase the External Dependency Manager from within the Package Manager?

yes, step 1: delete External Dependency Manager & admob files
step 2: restart unity

Guys, I recently had a similar problem and I managed to solve it by disabling my anti virus. If that solves it, I recommend adding Unity to the anti virus’s trusted programs list.
