As for disabling, define the system property netbeans.indexing.noFileRefresh=false as shown here https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/blob/91ba983d23e837d0f3fab8959b451d86e7e7cd7f/core.ui/src/org/netbeans/core/ui/warmup/MenuWarmUpTask.java#L166 --emi -------- Original Message -------- On 9 February 2018 8:12 AM, Humphrey Clerx <[email protected]> wrote: >Hello, > > Yes, I know this works in NetBeans itself.
