Problems with file dialogues. Example: File -> New project... -> [Categories:] Mobility -> [Project:] Mobile Project from Existing MIDP Sources -> Next -> [Sources Location:] Browse... -> In select box named "Look in:" select drive C: -> whole IDE friezes. Only task manager helps.
Can you attach stacktrace of IDE?
There was no stack trace, just windows (without redrawing - you know how it looks when it happens). Could it be because I have a lot of files on the drive C and dialog window in NetBeans 6 tries to build files tree? Why it uses trees? Old style file choosing dialog approach was good enough!

Yes, we need a thread dump from the IDE at the moment it is frozen. See http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/GenerateThreadDump Also, isn't your C: drive mapped to something unusual? (a network drive?)
No. It is usual C drive
I just tried on my new laptop (Dell Vostro 1500, Win Vista English). Everything ok. On Monday I will make dump (it is on my office) and post it here. Best regards and have a nice weekend! minimedj
Here is a dump of my frozen NetBeans. There is no exceptions so I just pasted it here. I made everything like it is described in the issue description. I was waiting for a response of IDE for 1 minute (exactly 60 seconds). ---- warm up starts compile thread: Thread[AWT-EventQueue-1,6,IDE Main] compile 1.687 warm up done 2234 ^C ----
Unfortunately, this is not a thread dump. Thread dump lists all the threads in the running JVM with their stacktraces - it is quite a long listing. On windows you need to run the IDE using the nb.exe launcher and then press CTRL+break in the console of running nb.exe process.
Hello anebuzelsky, There was no exception. I did everything like it described in Wiki (http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/GenerateThreadDump). IDE just hangs and does not respond on any user input (windows are no redrawing etc.) I made a screenshot, so you can see the problem: http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/1706/nb6xf3.png p.s. I know what is thread dump.
So, this is the only text that displays in the console when you press CTRL+Break there? (the console has to be the active window, not the IDE) Strange. Please, try the StackTrace tool as mentioned at the end of the GenerateThreadDump page. Thanks.

I just attached stack trace of frozen NetBeans
Could this be the same issue as issue #109703? Do you happen to have large ZIP files on your desktop?
Hello anebuzelsky, you are right. I have about 5 zip files on my Desktop. One of the has size about 82 MB. The same stuff with C: drive. I have 2 files (each about 25 MB) in the root of C: drive. Could it be a reason for this issue?
> Could it be a reason for this issue? I believe it is the reason. Could you try running the IDE with -J-DFileChooser.useShellFolder=false parameter? Or if this does not help, could you try moving the zip files to some other directory? I am closing this one as a duplicate. Feel free to reopen if you find out this is not the case. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 109703 ***
