------------------------------------------------------------------
This issue isn't specifically with 12.6. The FindBugs plugin has given problems
since NetBeans 11.3. There are two issues: the FindBugs plugin can't be
accessed, but even if it could, it won't work with releases > JDK 8. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-576
In any case, FindBugs is dead, and has been superseded by SpotBugs. For Gradle
projects (only) a possible workaround would be to run using the SpotBugs plugin
for Gradle.
That said, the absence of the FindBugs plugin should not prevent _Source >
Inspect..._ from working at all.

> Key: NETBEANS-6388
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6388
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 12.6
> Environment: macOS Monterey. Running NB 12.6 with Java 17.
> Reporter: Thomas Wolf
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Time Spent: 2h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> It appears that the deprecated FindBugs plugin support is causing the rest of
> Source->Inspect not to work either. Very easy to reproduce.
> When I try to define a configuration via the Source-Inspect… dialog, it lets
> me define it and hit the “Inspect” button, but the results tab simply shows
> “Required Plugin Missing” even when the configuration I’ve defined and run
> uses the built-in “Netbeans Java Hints". As a matter of fact, you don’t even
> have to define a configuration - just select the “Default” one - which uses
> the “Netbeans Java Hints” analyzer from the drop-down and hit “Inspect”.
> You’ll still see (at least I do) the result of “Required Plugin Missing”.
