   Lore : Because the legacy package is named open-code and the new one is named opencode, APT treats them as completely separate packages.

   How to Fix: "OpenCode 1.17.0 or newer is required to use the free tier"
   This error occurs when an outdated OpenCode CLI or sidecar version (e.g., 1.14.33) is being executed instead of version 1.17.0 or newer.

   Solution (Linux / Debian):
   Remove the obsolete legacy package:
   sudo apt remove open-code
   Install or update to the latest version: Run the official installer script:
   curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

   Thank you for the explanation.

   How can I fix this issue on Windows?

   I am currently using OpenCode Desktop v1.18.31 on Windows, but I still receive the following error:

   Error from provider (Console): OpenCode 1.17.0 or newer is required to use the free tier

   Since the Linux solution involves removing the legacy open-code package and reinstalling the latest opencode package, what is the equivalent procedure for Windows?

   Is it possible that OpenCode Desktop is still detecting or executing an older OpenCode CLI/sidecar installation somewhere on my system?

   If so, could you please provide the recommended steps to completely remove the legacy version and install or point OpenCode Desktop to the latest OpenCode CLI on Windows?
