After upgrading Android Studio to last version, 2025.1.1, I'm getting this error in kotlin multiplatform plugin: 
incompatible : requires IDE build 243.* or earlier
Has someone faced this issue and solved it? Can't find info in google.

Have you checked for plugin updates? With Narwhal 2025.1.1, you should see this version of the plugin:

Narwhal 2025.1.1 the last version I can download from the plugins market is 8.5
I even uninstalled it, and reinstalled it using the "install" button on the plugins website in chrome but it installs 8.5
z
If you uninstall it, does the same 0.8 version show up within the IDE again?
p
yes
seems that the marketplace doesn't detect the 9.X version
z
That's really strange, I'm out of my usual troubleshooting steps, maybe someone from the plugin team can help with more
In the meantime, you should be able to grab the 0.9-...-AS-69 version which is the latest one for Narwhal 2025.1.1 as a manual download from here: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14936-kotlin-multiplatform/versions Specifically: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/download?rel=true&amp;updateId=766503
And then install it from zip
p
well, can't install from disk
Copy code
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\plugin6516262512493881278\kmm-plugin\bin\Bridge.framework\Bridge: a required privilege is not held by the client

Ah, it's an OS issue. The new plugin is only published for macOS for now, we're still working on its Linux and Windows versions.
In the meantime on Windows, you can grab the plugins mentioned here instead: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0922A726/p1747825745389619?thread_ts=1747675652.542419&amp;cid=C0922A726

wow!
that's incredible, windows is the most used OS in the world
but well, I hope you can solve this guys, thank you
on the other hand, I do not develop for IOS, only for Desktop and Android
z
We're aware, and we're working on Windows support, but as mentioned in that post, most things that the plugin does are around iOS support anyway, which can't really be provided other than on macOS. So it's mostly an inconvenience at this point, having to install those separate plugins manually on other platforms, instead of being able to install the single KMP plugin that will take care of everything.
p
any update on this?
nearly one month have passed and seems that support for windows is still off
z
The current plan is for it to ship this month (August), but unfortunately I can't give a better estimate than that. We're tackling some last bugs and packaging issues at the moment.
p
thank you
Hi, is any new about this? we are in september already, and as I'm reading, windows users still can't develop compose desktop because this plugin is still not compatible with windows
@zsmb maybe do you have any news?
t
p
is there something that makes better to use intellij idea over android studio?
for people like me that develops for android, is more comfortable to develop for desktop and android using android studio instead of having two IDEs
also... will it be compatible with android studio?
z
windows users still can't develop compose desktop because this plugin is still not compatible with windows
Once again, this is simply not the case. You can absolutely work on Compose apps for desktop on Windows machines, you've been able to for a long long time. See messages above in the thread for more explanation and recommended plugins if you for some reason can't get the new KMP plugin yet.
for people like me that develops for android, is more comfortable to develop for desktop and android using android studio instead of having two IDEs
That's a fair preference. That's why we're also providing support in Android Studio for everything as much as that's possible.
also... will it be compatible with android studio?
The announcement above says this directly: "P.S. Android Studio is coming soon, so stay tuned!" For more details of when AS will get support, see: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KMT-789/Linux-Windows-support-with-some-functionality-disabled#focus=Comments-27-12670020.0-0
p
thanks!
well, nearly a month more has passed
and still not compatible with Android Studio in Windows? Trying to install the plugin it still tells that plugin is not compatible
😕
z
Still waiting for Android Studio to adopt IntelliJ platform 2025.2.2.
p
if this can help: "Android Studio Otter 2 Feature Drop | 2025.2.2 Canary 1 is now available in the Canary channel."
z
Yes, that's probably the first version that will be able to support the plugin.
