I want to change 

/opt/st/stm32cubeide_2.0.0/plugins/com.st.stm32cube.ide.mcu.externaltools.cubeprogrammer.linux64_2.2.300.202508131133/tools/bin/STM32_Programmer_CLI

to

/opt/st/stm32cubeide_1.4.0/plugins/com.st.stm32cube.ide.mcu.externaltools.cubeprogrammer.linux64_1.4.0.202007081208/tools/bin/STM32_Programmer_CLI

because my computer OS is too old to run the latest version. How can I do that with Version: 2.0.0?

Linux has symbolic links, they are very convenient to redirect access to files and directories.

Consider updating your system soon.

Changing out the real file for a link is possible, but I have to change the name of the real file too, then add the link. 

How does STM32CubeIDE know where to look? 

Edit: I'm buying a whole new computer - at 8 years out of date I do need to upgrade. But I want to run the new one for 10 years too, so knowing the answer will be helpful 5 years from now.
