"Plugin Installation Error" in Rider when updating to 2021.3.2

josefblaha commented 2 years ago

When I try to update the plugin from 2021.3.1 to 2021.3.2, after Rider restarts, I get the following message:

The IDE failed to install or update some plugins.
Please try again, and if the problem persists, please report it
to https://jb.gg/ide/critical-startup-errors

The cause: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: C:\Users\josef\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\Rider2021.3\plugins\fluentassertions\dotnet\ReSharperPlugin.FluentAssertions.dll

Any ideas?

Can you try to reinstall the plugin?

Trying to uninstall gave the same error message on restart. Then I tried to restart the IDE, but don't load the project, stay in Welcome dialog, go to plugins there and uninstall. That worked!

Could be that Rider, when restarting, does not wait for all previous processes to exit, and some of them was still using that DLL.

Thanks!
