Change unity hub to use and launch Rider or another IDE for scripts

on Unity

In order to change the launched development tool for unity hub when opening a .cs script file you need to go to:

  • Edit
  • Preferences...
  • External Tools
  • External Script editor

And change this to your editor of choice, for me that is Rider. Here is a picture of how the dialog looks:

That is all there is to it!
