Garbled Intellij window in Windows 10 - intellij-idea

My Intellij IDEA window gets garbled from time to time (see attached) I'm running the program 64-bit on a new Windows 10 laptop. The Intellij IDEA is version 2016.1.3 and build #IU-145.1617.
Can someone point me towards a fix? Many thanks

It may be that some exception is thrown internally in IntelliJ IDEA or a plugin. You can check the log to see if that is the case. Use the menu item Help > Show Log in Explorer to locate it.

JBoss Tools 4.16.0 Final completely freeze Eclipse 4.16 (2020-06)

I'm using Eclipse EE 4.16 (2020-06) - on Windows 10 Professional x64 - and I've tried to install the JBoss Tools 4.16.0 Final Plugin for it.
It literally break the IDE, whatever I try to do the IDE freezes: If I copy -> paste some code the IDE freezes for about 10 seconds (the screen become gray and Eclipse not responding).. the same thing happens if I try to navigate through classes or method (even worst..).
I tries even with Eclipse EE 4.15 (2020-03) but I obtain the same result.
Googling around I have found hypothetical solutions regarding eclipse.ini file changes but nothing works.
I attach a thread dump here.
Can you help me?
can you please also try https://tools.jboss.org/downloads/jbosstools/2020-09/4.17.0.Final.html? Its based on Eclipse 2020-09, so it could help.
Which JDK version are you using?
Thanks for response!

Tool window quick access doesn't work in IntelliJ IDEA Sometimes

I'am Using IntelliJ IDEA 2018.3.5 (Ultimate Edition)
I've been going through all the documents from JetBrains, but I couldn't find how to show my tool windows. Sometimes IDEA behaves unexpectedly by not giving me a way to show my tool windows. I've tried to access them using my usual keyboard shortcuts, Find action feature or by clicking this icon
But unfortunately, IDEA does not give me any response.
By the way, it works If I completely shutdown IDEA, but I can't do that when I am in the middle of a keynote since it takes time to reboot.
How can I fix the issue?

IntelliJ "Executing pre-compile tasks...:"

I am working on a large project using IntelliJ 14.1 latest.
Recently, whenever I stop editing for a minute or so, IntelliJ freezes for several minutes with the message "Executing pre-compile tasks...:" followed by the message "All files are up-to-date".
Any idea what is causing this behavior and what I can do to prevent it?
I faced this problem and it drove me nuts for about 3 days. The existing answers did not solve it. Neither did deleting preferences, caches, re-installing IntelliJ on my machine helped. I even tried to turn my Mac off and on again
Finally, what worked for me was to delete the .idea folder (which is usually located in the root of project)
Of course I feel stupid. Hope this helps someone else because this is one of the top hits for those keywords.
IntelliJ version : IDEA 2019.2.3 (Community Edition) on macOS 10.14.6
Your problem becasue 2 things:
- In source code have pre-compile script.
- IntelliJ IDEA build project automaticaly when IDE is idle.
Solution:
Choose menu File \ Settings... or press combine keys: Ctrl+Alt+S.
Choose Build, Execution, Deployment \ Compiler , uncheck item Make project autimatically (only work while not running / debugging)
or type in search box at top-left corner, search keyword something like the above.

Android Studio Freezes

I use Android Studio 0.8.6 for Android Development, and when I'm editing a file, it will freeze, and I have to restart computer to close it, since System Monitor (I am on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) won't close it. It's always the same file I'm editing, this never happens with any other file. It shouldn't matter, but the name of the file is sun_vertex_shader.glsl. There's no error, or log output, or anything.
Here's exactly what happens - I'm typing in the file, the cursor freezes, stops blinking, and the mouse pointer is an I-beam, no matter where in the window I move it. The window doesn't close when I press the X, and when I restart my computer and open Android Studio again, I start editing the file and seconds later, it happens again.
I know you probably can't help me without any error logs, but I couldn't find any. If you know where I could find them, I will post them here.
I found out what is causing this: the GLSL plugin I downloaded from here is causing Studio to freeze, as I have read in the comments.
Please check your system Date/Time and correct it, this problem occurred if your system date does not match with current date.

Intellij IDEA 13 - Can't open Project Structure dialog anymore

as already described in title, i'm not able to open the project structure dialog window in intellij anymore.
neither the shortcut (Ctrl+alt+shift+s) nor the menu element under File -> Project Structure nor the little button in the upper right corner do work.
Clarification: Menu element :
This "bug" occured suddenly as I wrote a web (vaadin/maven) project and tried to set up glassfish, where i often had to switch to the project structure dialog.
Since the first occurence i wasn't able to fix it by restarting intellij or switching projects.
This also happened on my laptop running the same intellij and windows version (Ultimate 13.0.1 Build: 133.331 on Windows 7 x64)
i appreciate any help!
This also happened to me, but removing new plugins etc didn't help.
Nor did nuking my project and rebuilding it from scratch.
In the end I deleted all caches, restarted Intellij and at last I could access the project settings again! By the way, I'm using Intellij 11.1 - mainly because I can't get 13 to start up, but that's another story
Your log shows that it is a bug in IntelliJ IDEA - they are trying to create file passing null pathname. Try to delete project files and reopen project from scratch (maybe you've lost some file) - if it won't help then you should create an issue here: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/ - You can even copy-paste text from your question and attach stacktrace
I had the same issue...upon further inspection in the log dump...I noticed the following:
ERROR - llij.ide.plugins.PluginManager - com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
at com.jetbrains.python.sdk.PythonSdkType.getHomeChooserDescriptor(PythonSdkType.java:247)
Disabled the latest Python Plugin and restarted and everything is working normal again.
I remembered I had recently update my python plugin and am not using it presently so I was able to disable it without issue.
Hope this helps someone else.
This also happened to me. The comment above helped. I had just added some plugins. Disabled them and it started working again. Not sure exactly which one because I disabled all 4 -- Bean Validation Support, Bitbucket, Jelastic Cloud Platform Integration, and Quick Notes.
For me it has been resolved by switching off FindBugs plugin and restart IDEA. So Project Structure is available for me now.
One of the plugins might be causing it. To disable a plugin, go here:
You'll know for sure if a plugin is bad if you see this Exclamation picture:
Clicking on it will bring up a pop-up. To disable the plugin, click on this:
For me it got resolved just by restarting the intelliJ IDEA. I'm using intelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2018.1 edition.
