STM32CubeIDE does not recognize STM32CubeMX update

[JimEno]

I am using:

STM32CubeIDE  Version 1.11.0

STM32CubeMX  Version 6.7.0

I used STM32CubeMX to update itself to Version 6.12.0  (to location C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeMX)

Problem:

I cannot open/edit BLE_HeartRate.ioc file because it says it was created using CubeMX ver 6.11.0 and CubeIDE is using CubeMX ver 6.7.0.. When using STM32CubeIDE, the 'Help About' still reports STM32CubeMX as version 6.7.0. I have no idea how to tell my CubeIDE to use the newer CubeMX. I would think it would be taken care of automatically. What is going on?

Hello @JimEno 

You should update the STM32CubeIDE to the last version V1.16.0. This is the version compatible with the CubeMX V6.12.0.

Best Regards.

Just to be clear, STM32CubeIDE includes an internal version of STM32CubeMX. The only way to update this is to update STM32CubeIDE itself.

The standalone STM32CubeMX installation is a separate application and isn't needed if you're just using STM32CubeIDE.
