Can not find LightEdit Mode executable 'idea'
Answered
I am excited about the LightEdit Mode announced in this blog post: https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2020/01/intellij-idea-2020-1-eap-2/#lightedit_mode
But I can not seem to find the `idea` executable. Currently there is no idea executable in my Windows command line path.

I too was excited to find out about LightEdit mode but could not find it after updating. I use the Toolbox App on Linux. If you are also using the ToolBox app then that's likely your issue. The announcement for the latest update to WebStorm include the extra step you need to do (enable generate scripts) in the ToolBox app to make it work:

After enabling generate scripts in the toolbox app it now works for me.

You need to add the IntelliJ IDEA bin directory to the PATH environment. See this page for details:
