Michael and All -- I am a completely amateur programmer, so this may have no relevance to the problem under discussion.
I experienced a similar (same?) red dot phenomena, and utilized the same fixes. For me the dots occurred after I had copied over some old classes to the current project using the File Explorer (Windows 11). (By copied over I mean that the class names were the same.) Perhaps 15% of the few hundred source files subsequently appeared with the red error dots, and the dots disappeared after opening and saving the files. I don't now recall if I had to do a silly space change. I am using Java 17. -- Chris On Tue, May 6, 2025, at 1:53 PM, Michael Bien wrote: > On 5/5/25 09:39, Jens Zurawski wrote: > > Hi folks, > > > > I have a nasty problem every time I'm updating to a new Netbeans Version, > > which really prevents me from doing it too often.
