Issues opening projects on Windows
NB 12.5 Running on JDK 16 Windows 10 Pro.
NB 12.5 takes so long to initially put up the Open Project dialog on Windows (over 20 seconds on a fast laptop with SSD) that I would not be surprised if some people simply killed the process thinking it was locked up. This results in an unpleasant first experience with NetBeans for Windows users. The project open dialog comes up quickly on subsequent tries.
When opening a Gradle project for the first time, a “priming build” is required (i.e. the build script needs to be evaluated and since that is basically the equivalent of running a script, the user needs to acknowledge it). The problem is after successfully doing this priming build and dismissing the dialog the project does not appear in the projects list! You have to open the project a second time to get it to show up. You can also restart NB and it will have remembered that the project is supposed to be open and it will appear a few seconds after the UI shows.
Am I the only one seeing these issues?
Scott

No slowness report. Not in a corporate env. Virus scanning is turned off for my development folder, but is otherwise active. (Just the built-in Windows Defender)
Just tried 12.4 and the dialog opened instantly. But then I tried 12.5 again and it was nearly instant too. Something’s fishy... reproduced it twice in a row before I sent that email and it wasn’t the first time I had noticed it. I’ll try again after rebooting…
Dang.. not doing it now… It’s happened multiple times in the past.

Hi Scott,
do you see this behavior in NetBeans 12.4 as well? Are you in a
cooperate environment? Sometimes there are problems with Antivirus
solutions or Network Drives.
Is a slow report generated?
Cheers
