             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.
