Eirik Bakke commented on NETBEANS-1914:
---------------------------------------
The act of moving the NetBeans binaries to a new directory seems to break
various links from the all-layers.dat file in the cache directory. Workaround
is to delete the NetBeans cache directory.
> NetBeans fails to start after being moved to new directory

> Key: NETBEANS-1914
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1914
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 10.0
> Environment: Windows 10 64-bit
> Reporter: Sven Thuri
> Assignee: Johan Persson
> Priority: Major
>
> So I don't know a lot about JIRA, bugs and all this stuff so bear with me.
> I just installed netbeans, extracted the zip folder first into my downloads
> folder I believe and then moved the extracted netbeans folder to my desktop
> for ease of access.
> When I started up the netbeans .exe file from bin folder it looked okay but I
> noticed a notification to the right on the bottom bar. It said netbeans could
> not find a specific jar that it was looking for, but it was looking for it in
> the wrong place, the Downloads folder, which is not the current directory of
> the netbeans folder and where I'm starting the program from. However it said
> it was a silent error, or something like that so I didn't think much of it.
> So I tried just checking out the program and the first thing I do is pressing
> the File button from the menubar at the top. The program then becomes
> unresponsive so I ended the task in Task Manager. Then I tried starting the
> program up again about 5 more times and it kept on happening, so now it tells
> me I have found a bug and asks me to report it which is what I'm doing :)
