I'm using MCUXpresso IDE v25.6 on a MIMXRT1064-EVK and trying to install a CMSIS pack (.pack file) into the IDE.
The Open-CMSIS-Packs documentation refers to a CMSIS-Pack Manager with an "Import Packs from disk" option, but I cannot find it anywhere in my installation. I suspect the menus may have changed in the v25.x release versus the older 11.x documentation:
- Nothing appears when I search "cmsis" or "pack" under Window > Show View > Other.
- There is no CMSIS-Pack Manager listed under Window > Perspective > Open Perspective > Other.
- Under right-click project > SDK Management, I only see "Manage SDK Components," "Refresh SDK Components," and "Add SDK Part Support" — no option to add an Open-CMSIS pack.
- Dragging the .pack onto the Installed SDKs view opens the "Import SDK Git" wizard instead, which asks for a git manifest folder.
Where is the CMSIS pack installation / "Import Packs from disk" option located in MCUXpresso IDE v25.6, and how do I install a local .pack file so its components appear under Manage SDK Components?
Hi,
The support for management of Open-CMSIS packs inside MCUXpresso IDE was removed in version 25.06, as described in the MCUXpresso IDE 25.06 Release Notes (RN00128).
One option would be to use the SDK for the MIMXRT1064-EVK, where the CMSIS drivers are already included and can be added when creating a project.
Best Regards,
Pablo
