Bringing this out of the 11day old thread in case anyone else can help?

[Kris Wong]

I had a lot of issues trying to downgrade when I pulled the trigger too soon on 1.3.60

[Kris Wong]

i don't know if there's a good answer

Are you uninstalling the 1.3.7x plugin before installing the 1.3.61 one?

[Brendan Weinstein]

I believe what has worked for me in the past (on a mac) is:

1. uninstall 1.3.71 plugin by going to preferences -> plugins -> kotlin -> tap arrow next to disable (tap uninstall)
2. find compatible 1.3.61 release here. https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6954-kotlin/versions
3. right click intellij/AS. navigate to plugins folder. copy and paste unzipped folder you downloaded in (2).

[Brendan Weinstein]

Also highly recommend running two installations of intellij or two installations of android studio. That way you can be a good relay for your team on updates to skip; and updates that fix major bugs or make major perf improvements.

For kotlin+android development the community edition is as good as paid, so no reason to not have community stable and EAP running side-by-side if on a budget.

@Brendan Weinstein There is only an option to Disable (no arrow to select uninstall).

[phldavies]

If I disable, restart, install from disk and restart again, it still lists 1.3.71 as disabled.

[Brendan Weinstein]

That's odd. This is what I see in 2020.1 release candidate

[Brendan Weinstein]

Just double checked 2019.3.4 and I see the arrow as well

[Brendan Weinstein]

When you say "install from disk" do you mean you are copying and pasting directly into the plugins directory?

[phldavies]

no, I’m downloading the zip and using the “Install plugin from disk” option from that dialog cog at the top
