    Code (CSharp):
    1. The type name 'ParticleSystem' could not be found in the namespace 'UnityEngine'. This type has been forwarded to assembly 'UnityEngine.ParticleSystemModule, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' Enable the built in package 'Particle System' in the Package Manager window to fix this error.
    After updating to Unity 2019.3.9f1. There is no package "Particle System" in the package manager.

    Restarting the Editor resolves the problem.

    Hi @MNNoxMortem,

    This may be because in the older version of Unity, the Particle System wasn't a Package Manager module and was simply built into the editor. Do you remember which version of Unity you were using before you updated the project?

    In any case, I'm glad restarting the editor resolves this issue :)
