As soon as you close the tool, its files will be replaced with their new versions, and you can then continue working. After that, it enters the “Update Pending” state, which means that the only thing left is to wait until the tool stops running. The only change is that, when you try to update a running tool, the Toolbox App performs all the necessary actions (downloading, unpacking, etc.) in the background, except for actually copying new files to the tool installation directory. Just click the update button, or turn on automatic updates. The process of updating your tools is just as easy as before. The Toolbox App will disambiguate them automatically, and you can set custom names in the tool’s settings if you wish. Installing multiple versions of the same tool side by side is still possible. It now puts the new version into exactly the same directory, ensuring a permanent path for each tool. In previous versions, the Toolbox App installed updates in the directory with a version number as its name, so each new version had a new path on the filesystem. In a future release, we’re planning to implement the ability to elevate permissions, which would allow installation to system-wide directories. Please note that the Toolbox App can only install applications to user-writable directories (for example, the user’s home directory). Linux: ~/.local/share/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps (no change).Windows: %LocalAppData%\Programs ( FOLDERID_UserProgramFiles).Toolbox App 2.0 uses the following default directories to install tools: This improves integration with the OS and third-party applications and eliminates workarounds both in the Toolbox App and elsewhere. The default installation directory now conforms to your operating system’s guidelines and never changes. The Toolbox App previously installed tools in a custom directory with an ever-changing path. Install and update reworked from the ground up Read on to find out about all the changes we’ve made in this release. Thanks to the improved integration with the operating system and third-party applications, the Toolbox App is now even better at helping you manage all of your JetBrains tools. We’ve listened to our users’ feedback, analyzed the most voted bug reports in our tracker, and refactored the installation layout to address most of the pain points. We’re introducing the biggest update to the Toolbox App yet.
