Did you manage to run it on earlier versions? Sometimes it just wont work until you restart your android device.

I got this alert: "Set-up Android SDK path to make Android remote work". That must be set on Unity/Edit/Preferences/External Tools

I also had to install Google USB Driver on the Android SDK manager/SDK Tools

The last missing step was: Unity/Edit/Project Settings/Editor/Unity Remote Device set to 'Any Android Device'

I hope that helps

After spending a day trying to make this work on my Mac this is the only tutorial that proved valuable (will probably work for Windows too) :

https://www.techgrapple.com/make-unity-remote-work-on-mac-using-android-device/

The key step that was missing was to switch to Android build and download a Unity add-on for Android which was probably a requirement but mentioned nowhere in the official docs.
