About problems installing Kangaroo2 Components 2.5.3

Hello! When I opened Grasshopper, a prompt window popped up, indicating that I was missing Plug-in, and when I clicked “Download and Install”, the pop-up Package Restore window said "404: No package found by name of ‘Kangaroo2 Components’.

Failed to install the missing plug-in.

Not all plug-ins were found on the package server.

The missing plug-in(s) may be available at https://www.food4rhino.com.”

May I ask how I need to solve this problem?

In addition, I’m in my hard drive directory “C:/Program Files/Rhino 6\Plug-ins/Grasshopper/Components” and “C:/Program Files/Rhino 7\Plug-ins/Grasshopper/Components”
The “Kangaroo2Component.gha” component was found in it, so why would you be prompted to miss it?

Hi - When you are running Rhino 7, you shouldn’t have to install Kangaroo. Can you upload the gh file that is causing that pop-up?

That’s the pop-up prompt that pops up whenever I open Grasshopper. How can I solve this problem?

Hi -

Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.

Hi -

You’ll need to update your Rhino version. The current version is Rhino 7.11. Go to the Options > Updates and Statistics page and make sure to check the Enable Updates and Usage Statistics checkbox.
