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.
Downloading modules can take from a couple of minutes to an hour or so, depending on your web connection. During this time the Update Center dialog is open and modal, which means that you cannot use the IDE to do anything else; you cannot minimize the IDE; you cannot safely start another copy of the IDE even if you have the RAM. This dialog should turn into a nonmodal, minimizable progress dialog during the download.
Priority is changed to P4 (normal).
Autoupdate wizard is not modal now - since dev build #103
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
