By default, the Package Manager window displays the list of All packages with no Preview packages, but you can filter the list to display only packages installed in your project (including local packages) or display only built-in Unity packages or Asset packages. You can also include Preview packages in the list and search for a specific package by package name, tag name, or package version.

(D) The status bar displays messages about the package load status and network warnings.

(E) Click the reload button to force Package Manager to reload your packages.

Note: If you select the My Assets scope but you don’t see any packages, see Error messages in the Package Manager window for an explanation and solution.

Including Preview packages

Preview packages do not appear by default in the list of packages on the Package Manager window. This is because preview packages might be unstable, so you should not use them in production.

To include preview packages in the list, select Show preview packages from the Advanced drop-down menu.
