Also, ensure there is no active firewall

keen marsh
#

i removed the firewall for unity hub

#

just found another update, ill keep back in touch when its done updating and i test it out again

woven arrow
#

There are many more things that would need to get through the firewall. is it Windows Firewall, or a third party one?

keen marsh
#

windows

woven arrow
#

ok, that is not as bad then

keen marsh
#

norton was my only third party security software

#

but i completely uninstalled it

woven arrow
#

Install Issue, Norton

keen marsh
#

@woven arrow yeah i installed all the updates and rebooted, but its still not letting me launch any apps

woven arrow
#

So, the problem goes well beyond Unity then..

keen marsh
#

why not follow the diagnostic issues

woven arrow
#

we already did.

× Detecting whether proxy is configured at the system level...
× Testing connection to UPM via IPC connection...
× Measuring the latency of the latest editor download endpoint...
× Test the downloadability of the latest editor...
× Accessing Unity Services Endpoints...

#

these ones

woven arrow
#

If other things do not work on your computer, no amount of unity specific troubleshooting is going to do anything. you need to figure out the core issue first

keen marsh
#

everything on my pc has worked just fine

#

everything besides unity

#

😭

woven arrow
#

"yeah i installed all the updates and rebooted, but its still not letting me launch any apps" define 'any apps'

keen marsh
#

any unity games

#

well

#

orjects

#

projects

woven arrow
#

do you know how to use cmd prompt?

keen marsh
#

havent used it since my 9th grade IT class lol

woven arrow
#

one sec, testing pings

keen marsh
#

okay

woven arrow
#

ok, from Start, type cmd, and open that

keen marsh
#

okay

#

what nex

woven arrow
#

ping packages.unity.com

keen marsh
#

what next

woven arrow
#

was it successful?

keen marsh
#

yeah

woven arrow
#

ok. and you tried reinstalling Unity After uninstalling norton?

keen marsh
#

yeah

#

should i reinstall it again just to be sure?

woven arrow
#

when you say you reinstalled Unity, do you mean Hub, or Engine?

keen marsh
#

ill reinstall the installer too

woven arrow
#

yeah

keen marsh
#

both

#

i reinstalled all the unity stuff on my pc

woven arrow
#

the bottom line is, if Norton is fully uninstalled, and there is not another firewall on the computer, this should be working

keen marsh
#

so i cant have my basic firewall on?

#

like the windows firewall

woven arrow
#

also, did you use the Windows Progerams and Features to uninstall norton, or did you use the norton specific uninstaller?

#

Windows firewall is usually not a problem, as long as when it pops up, you let things through

keen marsh
#

i uninstalled it through windows

woven arrow
#

for testing purposes, you can disable windows firewall for a bit. often times, programs like norton, for claimed security reasons, require you to use their uninstaller, unlike other software. there are legitimate reasons

#

it is worth verifying

keen marsh
#

Could not find Unity Package Manager local server application at [C:/Program Files/Unity/Hub/Editor/2022.3.37f1/Editor/Data/Resources/PackageManager/Server/UnityPackageManager.exe]. Missing files could be the result of an antivirus action or a corrupt Unity installation.

Click on Retry to relaunch Unity and reopen your project.

Click on Diagnose to launch the Unity Package Manager Diagnostics tool.

#

still the same error

#

do you use wifi or ethernet

#

im current on an ethernet connection

woven arrow
#

let me know what happens after uninstalling norton with the tool and restarting windows. i use wired

keen marsh
#

@woven arrow i used the tool and restarted my pc

woven arrow
#

well, if it worked properly, you should be able to install Unity now

keen marsh
#

okay

#

i already have unity

woven arrow
#

you do Not have a working copy of Unity. you have a corrupt mess

keen marsh
#

so should i reinstall again

woven arrow
#

yes

keen marsh
#

okay

#

reinstalled, still doesnt work

#

@woven arrow

#

i even turned off my firewall

woven arrow
# keen marsh okay

Ok, at this point, there is nothing else i can do. it simply should be working. maybe someone else will see the post and have an idea. good luck
