I have Chipmunk right now. When I checked updates, AS wanted me to upgrade it to Electric Eel. I chose "ignore" and expected it would give me Dolphin. Now, when I check updates, it says "No IDE or plugin updates available".

Is there a way to update AS to Dolphin from within Android Studio? If not, how can I get the option to upgrade to Electric Eel back?

If you are unable to upgrade to a specific version of Android Studio, such as Dolphin, from within the application, you can download the desired version from the official Android Studio website and then install it manually.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Go to the official Android Studio website (https://developer.android.com/studio/)
2. Under the "Download" button, click on the "Other Download Options" link.
3. Scroll down to the "Previous Releases" section and select the version of Android Studio you wish to download (Dolphin).
4. Once the download is complete, close the current version of the Android Studio you have running.
5. Run the installer for the version you just downloaded and follow the prompts to install it.

Regarding the issue with not being able to upgrade to Electric Eel, you may need to check if the update is still available, if it is not, you can download and install it manually, as described above.

It's worth noting that when you install a new version of Android Studio, your settings and installed plugins will be retained, but you may need to reconfigure some settings and update your plugins to be compatible with the new version.

Also, you can try to clear the update cache by:

1. Go to the "Help" menu in Android Studio and select "Check for Updates"
2. Click on the "Settings" button in the bottom left corner of the window
3. Click on the "Clear Cache" button
4. Restart Android Studio and check for updates again.
