NPE: shell = ... // (init shell) if (shell.endsWith(...)) { ... } Seems that user run the IDE while cygwin installation was still in proccess. (key in registry exists -> IDE detected cygwin -> but no bash.exe installed yet). Relaunching IDE will solve the problem. Please reopen if it's still valid.
