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.
