I unzipped build 200112170331 into its own directory. When I brought it up I got some warnings. When I tried opening a file I got a NPE.
Created attachment 3868 [details] ide.log
It's in java module, see line org.netbeans.modules.java.JavaExecSupport$PropertyProxy.attachToDefault(JavaExecSupport.java:103)
and what about those 9 CCE from org.openide.loaders.XMLSettingsSupport$BrokenSettings ? There seems to be problem with settings. The NPE in Java module is because Lookup.getDefault().lookup(JavaSettings.class) returns null.
This build is unusable for me, so I changed it to P2. If you find this bug to be unreproducable take it back down to P3.
Passing to Jan. CCing Vita to check thi while Jan is on vacation.
Summary updated.netbeans_33RC1 Also note that this fcs runs against rc userdir.
I still get this in build 200112230331.
I still get this with build 200201020331. I'll attach the ide.log (again) and a screen shot, in the hope that it helps. I'm "upgrading" this bug to P1, since this build is still totally unusable for me.

Zohar, please zip your user dir and attach it here. If it's too big then send me via mail to ttran@netbeans.org. thanks

Main root of all problems with settings came from the fact that you have switched between three versions of ide in the following order: 3.3.0, trunk, 3.3.1 (as can be read from the ide.log) The problem is in the trunk version. All fixes for 3.3.0 and 3.3.1 are in separated branches *not* in the trunk, they will be merged lately. In the trunk continues development for 3.4. So versions of modules in the trunk are higher than in 3.3.x. And downgrading of settings isn't supported. So I recommend to delete the Windows settings from your projects. You will lose only windows settings *not* other project settins. Windows settings can be found in your userdir under Projects directory - where each project has system/Windows subfolder. When you delete Windows subfolder (i.e. {userdir}/system/Projects/ISM SDK 1.1/system/Windows), you should start/open project without errors. I have created new issues for minor problems found in the ide.log. See issues #18998, #19000 and #19001. I recommend to use different userdirs for different ide versions and use import projects or import settings stuff instead of reusing of the one userdir while experimenting with development versions, because returning to the previous (older) version will cause incompatibility in settings formats. Userdir can be defined in the ide.cfg file in the bin directory using '-userdir new_userdir' switch. So I am going to close this issue as invalid. If deleting of windows settings doesn't solve the problem - please reopen. Also when you encounter some others problems with settings in the future, please go and report them. Thanks for using NB and reporting problems.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified
