✅ Problem updating rider
Hello guys, I tried to update to the latest version of rider but the thing is I didn't have enough disc space and so the update was cancelled. Now that I made enough space, when I try to update it again, it seems that nothing is happening, I had the "update" button but when it finish updating, the IDE remains as it is and it seems that when I click on certain buttons, like settings or plugins, nothing happens. Is there any solution to tackle this issue please... I even try to invalidate caches but nothing happens

What happens if you close rider?
euh it closes normally
see what it gives me each time

I'd say proceed
It expects files but finds something else because the update ended halfway
hmm I think I already try that :c but wait will do it again
Otherwise, unless you have data you need, I'd say just trash the whole Rider folder
yeah think I will do that, will just save my solutions else where and re-install it
when I click on proceed, I obtain another pop up later on

Fwiw, I always update via Toolbox and never had any issues
If I was low on space, it would just tell me and not update
oh ok, I saw the term "toolbox" somewhere don't remember where... I can just download toolbox, then it will update my jetbrains IDE whenever there are new updates?
ye
JetBrains
JetBrains Toolbox App: Manage Your Tools with Ease
Open any of your projects in any of the IDEs with one click.
Ok, will just do that then, thanks !
will try and come back
it works, thanks...toolbox automatically updates every jetbrains IDE? or we should manually trigger it ?
It can update them automatically if you want
Or just notify you of an update and you can start it yourself


ohh ok I see, thanks !
small question, the thing is with my projects, I was using .net 8, now it seems I have .net 9 downloaded, my project won't run? (I have libraries installed with the .net 8)
If you still have the .NET 8 SDK installed, any .NET 8 project should run just fine
oh ok I see
Thanks !
dotnet --list-sdks
to see what SDKs you haveyeah I only have the 9, I think I deleted the 8
I can just install the 8 or just change the .net version to 9 in my csproj file ?
You should be able to just update to 9 without much issue
ok, will just stick to 9 then, thanks !
Update the nuggies too, just in case

was looking for that 😂
