I already put the file nRF5FlashSoftDevice.jar in the folder ~\Documents\Arduino\tools\nRF5FlashSoftDevice\tool to install SoftDevice flashing tool as previous version such as Arduino IDE 1.8.14 etc..But can not find the option in tools menu. How can I add this option?

Hi @nakayobb . The classic Arduino IDE's tools system is not supported by Arduino IDE 2.x. So if you require one of these tools you'll need to continue to use the classic Arduino IDE.
You can follow the IDE developers' progress on providing a replacement for this capability here:
opened 11:42PM - 12 Feb 21 UTC
topic: code
type: imperfection
criticality: high
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I would like to propose support for extern… al tools / plugins which are compatible with Arduino IDE. Ex. https://github.com/me-no-dev/arduino-esp32fs-plugin or https://github.com/me-no-dev/EspExceptionDecoder
If it is already supported, how can I use tools in Pro IDE?
If it is not supported yet, are there any plans for implementing that?
### Describe the problem
There is no support for extending the capabilities of Arduino IDE via external tools/plugins. This is a feature parity mismatch with Arduino IDE 1.x.
### To reproduce
1. Follow the instructions to install the "Arduino Pico LittleFS Filesystem Uploader" plugin:
https://github.com/earlephilhower/arduino-pico-littlefs-plugin#installation
1. Start Arduino IDE 2.x
1. Open the **Tools** menu.
🐛 The expected "**Pico LittleFS Data Upload**" menu item is missing.
### Expected behavior
Support for extending the capabilities of Arduino IDE via external tools/plugins equivalent to the system provided by Arduino IDE 1.x.
