my project stops compilable after upgrading to 1.4.20 with a bunch of Kotlin: Type mismatch: inferred type is Optional<T!!> but Optional<T> was expected, is there a way to install older version of kotlin/kotlin-idea-plugin (1.4.10 works fine)?

[gildor]

Yes, you can uninstall Kotlin plugin and install it manually (drag and drop.kotlin plugin zip, you can download it from Idea marketplace website)
