Created attachment 120403 [details] Exceptions from messages.log on start up of the IDE NetBeans build 201206020001 JDK 7u3 32-bit This morning when I started up the IDE, I noticed that the projects, files and services top components just were not visible as usual. And when I opened one of them, it opened in the editor mode instead of the explorer mode. So I had a look at the messages.log file and I found the attached exceptions there (plus a lot more similar ones). Several of the .wsmode files were garbled when I opened them in a text editor, hence the exceptions. I am not sure how the corruption happened and whether it even is really an IDE issue. But it is interesting so I decided to report it anyway. :)
Looks like there were some problems during IDE shutdown. If this problem is reproducible, please attach full IDE log and also ZIP archive of <userdir>/config/Windows2Local BEFORE restarting the IDE, thanks.
