Blank Screen on asset store: another workaround

Hi all,
when trying to use the asset store, it was giving me a blank window inside the Unity editor. I checked the online asset store and that one was working fine, but when I clicked on “open in Unity” it kept giving me a blank page.

I tried restarting unity, I tried refreshing / closing / re-opening the asset store tab, I tried to remove all contents in the asset store folder, I tried creating a new blank project. I basically tried everything that was suggested in other related posts I could find, to no avail.

And then I tried one last thing: closing the asset store tab in the editor, and then in the online asset store I clicked “Open in Unity”… and it worked :slight_smile:

So I just wanted to share this to the world, and hopefully help someone else :slight_smile:

As said in the description:

  1. Open the asset store website Unity Asset Store - The Best Assets for Game Making
  2. Close the asset store tab in the Unity editor
  3. Open a plugin you want to download in the online asset store
  4. click on “Open in unity”

this worked for me anyways
