Hello,
I want to update Unity Editor to the latest version. I am puzzled because the installer prompts me to download and install packages that I already installed with the previous versions, like the Linux support and others. Why do I have to redownload those? The installer should detect that those packages are already installed, and mark them as already present on the system instead of making them selectable options. Am I missing something?
Thank you.
They are tied to the version, you will need to update them as well.
Hi zombiegorilla, thank you for your reply. Why exactly are the packages tied to the editor version? Could you provide some details or tell me where I can find some info about this?
They’re really part of the editor, just separated so you don’t have to download platforms you’re not interested in. It’s not possible to update the editor without updating the platform publishing stuff, since all the code is dependent.
