Unity Hub 4.0.0-beta.4

Official notes

General

  1. Change

    The Hub now lets you restore banners you previously dismissed, from Settings > Notifications.

  2. Fix

    Fixed an issue on Windows where the Hub signed you out after every restart if you first signed in with Hub 3.21 or older.

    • Windows
  3. Change

    Updating from Unity Hub 3.22 to 4.0 on Windows no longer removes the Hub from the taskbar or deletes its Desktop shortcut.

    • Windows
  4. Change

    When another Unity Hub on your computer, such as Unity Hub 3, opens sign-in links, the Welcome screen now says so and lets you switch them to this Hub.

  5. Change

    Unity 6.7 Editors now get your organizations from the Hub, as they do from Hub 3.

  6. Fix

    On macOS and Linux, fixed an issue where signing in through a proxy that uses Kerberos could fail.

    • macOS
    • Linux
  7. Change

    On Linux, the Asset Store's Open in Unity button now opens the asset in the Hub.

    • Linux
  8. Change

    On Windows, Tools > Unity CLI now finds the Unity CLI reliably, including right after the Hub installs it.

    • Windows
  9. Change

    On Windows, the Hub now shows an error message when it can't open its window, instead of closing silently.

    • Windows
  10. Change

    The Hub applies an administrator's machine-wide services-config.json again in more folder setups.

  11. Improvement

    Improved screen reader support across dialogs, Settings, the Welcome screen, and the Projects list.

  12. Change

    Clicking Complete setup or Skip setup on the Get set up page now takes effect in Settings right away.

  13. Change

    Settings > Apps on Windows now shows the size of the Hub itself, not the Editors or projects in its folder.

    • Windows
  14. Change

    The macOS app icon has its dark mode variant again.

    • macOS

Projects

  1. Change

    Opening a project from the Windows Jump List or the command line now says why nothing opened when the folder is missing or isn't in your Projects list.

    • Windows
  2. Change

    In New project, reserved Windows names such as CON or NUL now get their own error under Project name.

    • Windows
  3. Fix

    Fixed an issue where the Editor picker list jumped while it loaded.

  4. Change

    Long project names and paths with no spaces now wrap inside dialogs and lists instead of running past the edge.

Source control

  1. Change

    Adding a Unity Version Control project now says why it failed instead of showing a generic error.

  2. Change

    You can type in the Unity Version Control project field again to filter the list, as in Unity Hub 3.

  3. Change

    Searching GitHub for an owner that doesn't exist now shows “No repositories found” instead of “Something went wrong”.

Installs

  1. Change

    On Windows, the Hub now asks for administrator permission when an Editor or module install starts, not after the download finishes.

    • Windows
  2. Fix

    Fixed an issue on Windows where retrying a failed Editor install failed with “The install location path is too long”.

    • Windows
  3. Fix

    Fixed an issue on Windows where installing Unity 2018.4 or older to Program Files failed.

    • Windows
  4. Fix

    Fixed an issue on Windows where a module install could stall behind an installer that stopped responding.

    • Windows
  5. Change

    In Activity, a module that fails to install now shows why, instead of only “Install failed”.

  6. Change

    Retrying an interrupted download now continues from where it stopped instead of starting over.

Custom templates

  1. Change

    Selecting a template's missing Editor version badge now opens the install for that Editor.

Security

  1. Security

    Updated the bundled Unity CLI to 1.0.0-beta.14, which improves how it handles your credentials.

  2. Security

    Improved the security of Hub updates, module installs, and the update from Hub 3 on Windows.

    • Windows
  3. Security

    Improved the security of switching a project to a branch from a shared Unity Hub link. Projects whose repository isn't on GitHub or GitLab over HTTPS now need to be switched in Git directly.

Pick your Unity version

Unity Releases compares releases against the version your project is on. Picking it now keeps Compare versions focused on what changes between where you are and where you might be going.
