Bernard created NETBEANS-2631:
---------------------------------
Summary: File Open blocked by Windows message: Windows is
searching for mintty.exe
Key: NETBEANS-2631
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2631
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 11.0
Reporter: Bernard
Attachments: messages.log
I installed:
Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE 11.0 (Build
incubator-netbeans-release-404-on-20190319)
Java: 11.0.2; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.2+9-LTS
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 11.0.2+9-LTS
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_NZ (nb)
On installation, I let the IDE import settings from a 8.2 version.
How I reproduce it:
Menu|File|Open File
And here it starts with multiple Windows dialogs:
"Windows: Windows is searching for mintty.exe. To locate the file yourself,
browse."
After a while I get another Windows dialog:
"The item mintty.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so
this shortcut will no longer work properly.
Nearest match, based on size, date and type C:\Program
Giles\Git\usr\bin\mintty.exe
Do you want to fix this shortcut to point to this target or do you just want to
delete it?"
I let it ix it.
This sequence repeats 3 times until I eventually get the file selection dialog
which lets me open a file.
But it never gets fixed. Every time I useĀ Menu|File|Open File, the sequence
repeats, meaning I need about 10 minutes to open a file. Unfortunately I cannot
continue using NetBeans 11 because of this bug, and I am back to 8.2 once
again. See NETBEANS-1824.
