+
+

+1. Go to the Plugins tab in the IDE Settings and uninstall the latest version.
+
+2. Download the desired version from the provided link above; it will be saved as a zip file.
+
+3. Reopen the IDE settings and navigate to the Plugins section.
+
+4. Click the gear icon, then select "Install Plugin from Disk," and choose the downloaded zip file.
