This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
I'm using Win7 RC1 x64. Did before: - Install NetBeans IDE 6.5.1 with all components except SOA/GlassFish - Uncheck the box that shows the startup page each time - Create and save a new netbeans project - Close and restart netbeans Workaround: Edit "NetBeans 6.5.1\nb6.5\config\Modules\org-netbeans-modules-registration.xml" and set <enabled> to false. Then the register now dialog no longer appears on startup and you can click the other window away.
please read summary for problem description: netbeans cannot open because 2 dialogs block eachother
Created attachment 81762 [details] printscreen of the problem
Can you close top level dialog? (No Compilers Found) (ie. can you click on OK button of this dialog?)
No response. I will try to reproduce.
no you can't bring the other window to the front. and clicking on the buttons of the first window has no effect.
I need to know where this dialog is created and displayed in cnd (which class and when it is displayed to be able to test it). To be sure: Is it displayed from AWT thread? Then you can reassign back. Thanks. Looks like Swing issue.
Reporter: Please can you attach thread dump when this problem happens? Thanks.

To verify with dev build: Use command line option -J-Dnb.registration.enabled=true and delete $HOME/.netbeans-registration/6.7. It will open modal Registration Reminder dialog just after IDE start.
