See in Glossary packages according to the criteria that you select by filtering, including, or searching:

(A) Registry groups organize the list of packages installed in your project (or available for installation when you are in the My Registries context). Select the expander on the left to show or hide the list of packages for each registry.

(B) Select these expander icons to show and hide the list of versions installed or available. Certain versions indicate that they are recommended, user-installed or imported, or installed as a dependencyIn the context of the Package Manager, a dependency is a specific package version (expressed in the form package_name@package_version) that a project or another package requires in order to work. Projects and packages use the dependencies attribute in their manifests to define the set of packages they require. For projects, these are considered direct dependencies; for packages, these are indirect, or transitive, dependencies. More info
See in Glossary of another package.

(C) The package version displays the version of the package that’s installed. If the package is not yet installed, the version that appears is the recommended version. Special icons often appear beside the version number indicating its state:

• Released
• Release Candidate
• Pre-release
• Experimental
• Custom (embedded)

For Asset Store packages, the version that appears is either the version you already downloaded or the version that is available for download from the Asset Store.

(D) These icons display the status of the package or Asset Store package:

	A check mark indicates that the package is already installed or enabled. Note: Installed Asset Store packages display the import icon () if they are up to date.
	The update icon indicates that the package has an available update. To update your package, follow the instructions for either type of package: - For Unity packages, see Switching to another package version. - For Asset Store packages, see Updating your Asset Store package.
