This worked for me… thank you.

PAINFUL the hoops we jump through now.

Dear users,

We will soon be shipping the Package Manager Diagnostics tool with Unity to help us in diagnosing issues such as this. For now, the tool can be downloaded and run as a standalone application. If you are experiencing the issues described in this thread, we would be very grateful if you could try running the tool and giving us your feedback!

Please note: This tool is a work in progress. Since it is not yet shipped with Unity, you will have to give your permission to run the script when prompted by your OS. This will not occur in the final Unity build where the tool can be launched from the Unity editor.

Instructions:

• Download the zip

• Unzip UnityPackageManagerDiagnostics.zip

• Double-click the appropriate run-diag-<platform> for your OS

• Allow permissions to run the script

• On Mac, you will need to Right-click > Open run-diag-macos to give permission

• Attach the generated report file

We look forward to seeing your results!

It hangs on Measuring the latency of UPM packacge API… I have deleted the manifest json, it still doesnt work! I am using the latest version on Unity.

Hi, could you also request the .tgz file for ProBuilder’s most recent version? For some reason I get stuck forever on downloading it (literally hours of waiting) - I can see all the packages in Package Manager but they get stuck forever when i try to download them.

I have a solution for loading forever:

1.close unity
2.disable internet connection
3.open unity
4.open Package Manager
5.wait for a while and you will find all the packages show in the list
6.enable your internet when you want to download some packages.

Hope it can help someone.

Thanks buddy, this solutions works just fine. Somebody please put it on top of forum.

[ALIENPANDA]

Open the package manager, and if it still shows loading forever, try to disconnect the internet.
Wait for a few seconds, It will list all the packages. Reconnect now and download them. This works for me.

I am having this problem after updating a unity 2018 project to 2020. Never had the issue before that. Just says fetching packages endlessly. I tried disabling internet connection and launching unity but still fetching packages forever.

[UnityMaru]

Have you checked out the thread pinned about connection issues? Some of the fixes there may resolve your issue.

Hi @Tauseef_Ahmaad_1 , I’m sorry you are experiencing this issue, it is however a different problem than the one discussed on this thread. This font issue you are experiencing is fixed on 2020.3.43f1, you can find some discussion about this in this other thread .

Greetings from the future, several years after this thread was started…

Same problem, after installing SteamVR, the primary project I’m working on is stuck on “Fetching packages and features…”
Refreshing packages and features…

It’s worth noting that a NEW project that I created doesn’t have this problem.

Edit: I tried the “turning off the network connection” trick for five minutes…didn’t work.

I’m also having this problem now. With 2022.3.6f1. The package manager will get stuck “Checking for Updates” and there will be a circle icon next to each package.

Error is:
[Package Manager Window] Error while getting product update details: Something went wrong. Please try again later. [Error 0
UnityEditor.AsyncHTTPClient:smile:one (UnityEditor.AsyncHTTPClient/State,int)

To fix it I had to disable my windows firewall even though the exe for the editor is whitelisted, what’s going on?
Update: correction, problem is back, even with firewalls till off.
Update2: Switching between Unity Registry and My Assets seems to help it.

It seems undocking and docking the Package Manager sometimes helps. Buts its not really useable right now.

Same problem here, Unity 2022.3.7f1. Here I am again unable to continue working. I’m losing another share of hours just after I’ve already lost 2 days with UI anchors bugs in 2022.3.4f1 and a bug with Unity Hub 3.5.0 (latest version atm) not logging in (had to look for and install Unity Hub 2).

Please somebody enlighten me, why do things already working fine get broken with new versions, when those things don’t even get worked on?

Same here.

Same here.

[XPloadED]

I had the same problem. I now got it to work by removing and reactivating the Unity license in the hub. Maybe something you can also try but maybe it was only luck. 2022.3.7f1

[Bwacky]

Same issue here, flared up since I updated to 2022.3.4f1 I believe but can’t be bothered to redownload an old release and check since Hub is allergic to letting you download archive versions and I don’t feel like going to Unity’s homepage for it. Happens in all projects including clean ones. OCCASIONALLY, reloading the layout to default or re-docking the package manager window fixes the issue. Also sometimes the refresh button shows down on the left panel - can then click cancel on it or so and it un-lags the package manager.
Not managed to find a good fix for it yet but it’s incredibly annoying and loses me precious work hours, especially when working with packages regularly.
