Workarounds:

1. Use installation package from https://github.com/dprojects/Woodworking-package/releases and later update Woodworking workbench only via debugInfo tool - this way is recommended for fresh FreeCAD install and new users.
2. Copy manually to Mod folder - in this case you can download the zip repository and unpack to Mod folder or clone repository directly to Mod folder
3. Try update Add-on Manager and "refresh local cache"
4. Check your network settings because if you have problem to download 200 MB this might be huge problem in general with your network configuration...

Problem description:

I tried installing some other versions of FreeCAD to resolve difficulties I was having with Assembly. Now I don't seem to be able to install Woodworking :-(. I'm really getting frustrated with Snap packages.

Although I admit I'm not 100% sure this is a Snap issue. I'm now using Freecad 1.0.2. Should your code work with this version of FreeCAD?

Hi Tim @tim-rohrer

Currently Woodworking workbench is working with:

• FreeCAD 0.21.2
• FreeCAD 1.0
• FreeCAD 1.0.1
• FreeCAD 1.0.2
• FreeCAD 1.1dev 2025.08.20

If you have already installed Woodworking workbench you can update it via debugInfo. Add-on Manager has also cache problem so you may not see new versions there, in fact you have to update cache and probably update the Add-on Manager manually to get it to work. So it is much better to update Woodworking workbench via debugInfo.

I am not sure, maybe this should be open all the time because it is known Add-on Manager bug. I don't want to comment this again and the FreeCAD politics... I don't care in fact what they do, I have my own working environment for Woodworking. You can read more about it:
