When creating a project on 2022.3.16f1, the Rider libraries are not installed

Hello! I want to create a project using version 2022.3.16f1, but after creating it, the Rider libraries are not installed, and the script editor cannot be selected in “External Tools”.

Everything installs well on version 2022.3.13f1. But if you transfer the project later to version 2022.3.16f1, then errors appear again


On an empty 2022.3.16f1 project, adding com.unity.ide.rider 3.0.27 works fine on my end.

If Library\PackageCache\com.unity.ide.rider@3.0.27\Rider\Editor\JetBrains.Rider.PathLocator.dll isn’t present, maybe there’s some issue with antivirus or other software such that your 2022.3.16f1 installation’s creation of dll files is interfered with. It’s just odd that the issue is with a specific version, and that updating an existing project fails too. 2022.3.20f1 is the latest 20222.3 release, you could try updating to that first.

I installed version 2022.3.20f1, the error also appears
Installation via com.unity.ide.rider@3.0.27 does not help

Perhaps check/post your Editor.log file for anything anomalous besides those errors.

Check the presence of JetBrains.Rider.PathLocator.dll and any mention of it in the Editor.log.

Okay, I posted the file to that thread.

Clearing the global UPM cache and then re-creating the project helped
