I downgraded to Unity Hub 1.6.0, everything is fine now

Unity Engine

[Edit]
I found out that, I cannot renew my license using 1.6.0

Here is the 2.1.2 installer, perfect fine for me now:

2.2.X is buggy:

  • Cannot launch projects from the Hub
  • Empty console error

It wasted my time. Finally, I uninstall the 2.2.X and install the Hub 1.6.0, everything is fine now.

If you cannot find the 1.6.0 installer on Internet, here is my link.

Thank you for this. Its not a perfect solution though because HUB auto-updates itself back to 2.2.1.

I can confirm though, I uninstalled Hub 2.2.1, and installed Hub 1.6.0 from this link. Everything worked perfectly again.
Once it restarted and auto-updated to 2.2.1, everything broke again. No longer able to launch any Unity version.

avoid closing the hub is fine, it won’t update if you restart or shutdown your pc. :slight_smile:

Thank you so much. I could not download any of the editor versions, beacuse Hub jad problems with elevating privileges. Hub from your link works like a charm

Here is the issue: Unity Issue Tracker - Unity Editor throws empty errors when PATHEXT Environment Variable is overriden in User Environment Variables

Vote it!

you did such a great job!

After hours of search this finally works. Hope developers alert us more user friendly and descriptive messages. It is a really bad programmer habit to waste users’ time like this by showing this kind of misleading error messages.

As seen on this post : [Solved] Unity Editor doesn't start "Unity is already in list. You cannot locate the same version"

The first time I installed and used Unity 2019.3.15f1 and Unity Hub 2.3.2 I was on Wifi connection.
Since I come back home, I use my Ethernet connection and disabled my Wifi network adpater.
Then Unity Hub did not want to open any of my projects (collaborative nor local) with the mysterious-fast-as-light message : “Unity is already in list. You cannot locate the same version”.
I just reactivated my Wifi network adapter, but still connected on Ethernet relaunched the Unity Hub and it said something like “Your license is up to date!” and now I can reopen any of my project…
I guess the license and network adapter are kind of tied up… Puzzling indeed…

Thanks for older version, this bug still exist in any version above 2.1.2

I just had this problem and I found it was related to me disabling all the NICs in my computer (I only use WiFi but have dual network cards). After re-enabling all the adapters I disabled, it opened project with no problem.
