PhpStorm: "Executing 'Less' task" keeps flashing - less

I am using PhpStorm 2020.2.4 and am experiencing a strange behaviour:
there's a message popping up every second in the PhpStorm taskbar: "Executing 'less' task" .. even when doing nothing. Any ideas what could be causing this?
I configured a File watcher for .less but this shouldn't happen in idle mode.

Terminal gets blocked when opening Intellij

as I have set the Path variable to point to the "bin" folder of Intellij I can project from the command line by navigating to the specific folder and then executing idea ..
The problem now is that when starting Intellij the console is blocked. I can of course press Ctrl + C to end the execution but then Intellij is closed.
a) Is this the normal behavior or did I set something up wrong?
b) How do I change it? Basically I would like open “Intellij” and still be abel to use the console afterwards.
I am using the Intellij Idea Community Edition on version 2021.3.3
This is normal behavior. The termial accepted the command and is waiting for it to terminate. You could start the command and let it run in the background, so the terminal returns, and the process does not stop:
On Linux:
idea . &
On Windows:
start /B idea .

Intellij GitToolBox Plugin Spawns dozens of ssh.exe that never close

I just started at a new company and they use Intellij with the GitToolBox plugin. Their code is on BitBucket. I seem to be able to do everything manually so I think Git and the SSH stuff is all connected. When I open Intellij it opens up a dozen or more ssh.exe and maxes out my CPU (i9) and will stay that way forever until I manually kill them. When I try to fetch it also runs forever and never shows progress or completes. I verified that it is indeed the GitToolBox plugin as this issue does not occur when I remove that plugin. I have tried older versions as well as adding/removing the plugin.
The only thing I can see in the Intellij logs are repo hash mismatch INFO messages and the following:
2021-08-16 14:04:36,198 [ 557785] WARN - nSystem.impl.ActionToolbarImpl - 'TodoViewToolbar' toolbar by default uses any focused component to update its actions. Toolbar actions that need local UI context would be incorrectly disabled. Please call toolbar.setTargetComponent() explicitly.
java.lang.Throwable: toolbar creation trace
And
2021-08-16 14:04:59,580 [ 581167] WARN - penapi.actionSystem.impl.Utils - Use DataManager.getDataContext(component) instead of SimpleDataContext for wrapping.
java.lang.Throwable: Use DataManager.getDataContext(component) instead of SimpleDataContext for wrapping.
Has anyone encountered this or know how to fix it?
For anyone that happens upon this issue, I installed Git For Windows incorrectly and was using the "Git Bash only" option instead of the "Command line and 3rd party apps" option during the initial install. To change these you have to completely uninstall g4w and reinstall it selecting the new options.

IntelliJ terminal messed up prints duplicate message (instead of updating)

Recently got a new computer with "IntelliJ 2021.1.3 CE" installed, but somehow the terminal console is printing redundant message instead of "updating" messages.
I have pointed my Terminal's Shellpath to "E:\git\bin\bash.exe", but if run the same build command with gitbash.exe, I don't run into below issues...
Thanks in advance for any helps/suggestion !!

Keep getting : Debug error BC31019 : Unable to write to output file 'path/form.exe System Error &H80070005& VB.NET

I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2013 and I'm doing some very basic windows forms application.
A month ago, I could do everything I wanted without any problem. But I started some new projects today and for absolutely no reasons, I keep getting this error message when I come to debug or compile:
Debug error BC31019 : Unable to write to output file 'path/form.exe System Error &H80070005&
It can happen simply by changing the size of a textbox or modifying the text content in a label... It's very random... And I can even do an undo (ctrl+z) and then I can debug again, but if I try again to do the thing I did that brought the error message, the same message pops again as I try to run.
After reading a little about the subject, I realized that it was because the .exe file became in read-only mode and when I try to remove it, windows wont let me.
The only thing I can do if I really want to continue, is to restart my computer every times it happens. Then I can continue just like normal as my .exe file is no longer in read-only...
I tried tor run a sfc/scannow in my command prompt to see if i had any problems with my frameworks but everything was fine.
Since, it is when i restart my pc that the bug disapears, isn't anything i can do or run somewhere to do the same thing. I need to find why the exe file goes to read-only for nothing and how to get it back to normal without having to restart my pc every time...
Please help me!
thank you
I came across the same issue and it was related to having a command line argument that VS could not find, then when i clicked stop debugging I ended up in this situation as it seemed VS kept a process running.
I could see this process in task manager but could not end it (it started with the same name as my app)
I found closing VS would release this process.
Restarting VS it would then work ok again.
there may be other ways to reproduce the issue but restarting VS seems to release the file and allow you to continue.
I set the exe properties to Read/write. No effect, but when I set app properties/settings to "Always on top" = False the issue went away and is still away.

Stop auto popping up intellij messages window

Every time I try to run a test or compile code in IntelliJ, if another file has a compile error, it causes the messages window to auto popup and the editor automatically opens that file with the error. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?
You can try to disable the Automatically show first error in editor option:
