Same problem and details below, currently unfeasible to work with IntelliJ.

Same here. PyCharm freezes when adding a file in a plain Python project. The new file is not being displayed. After Force Quit and restart the new (blank) file appears. Also freezes when creating a new plain Python project and check the ‘Create main’ box. PyCharm 2023.3.3 on Macbook M1 Pro 2021 running 14.3.1

Here Pycharm has become useless for full-text searches, it basically always freezes at this point

Using absolutely latest version btw: Build #PC-233.14475.56, built on February 26, 2024

BTW: I reset the whole IDE again and thru all the steps including recreating the index, and it temporarily works again, but I did it already in the past, and it keeps coming back.

UPDATE: it comes back after less than one hour of usage, which makes the IDE unusable now.

actually, the suggestion I got in the issue tracker to disable this pesky plugin, did help in my case 👏

I fixed the problem by just uninstalling and installing intellij again, I don't know way, I was in the last version but the UI was different before the re-install.

Same issue in GoLand 2024.1 and WebStorm 2024.1 on Mac M1

Possibly started after upgrading MacOS to 14.4.1 - or possibly after upgrading JetBrains IDEs - I'm not sure, upgraded both around the same time

There is a freeze every few minutes, for about 10 seconds

Android Studio Iguana does not seem affected

I would like to share that the problem only occur when my machine sleeps. So, I finish my work in one day and keeps the IDE opened. In the next day, I wake up and the IDE is freez.

See https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544899 for the details. Use jstack. IDE may also record automatic thread dumps when it's frozen. You can find them in the Logs directory: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/directories-used-by-the-ide-to-store-settings-caches-plugins-and-logs.html#logs-directory . You can use Help | Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data to collect all the logs and automatic thread dumps in addition to jstack.

Same issue in version 2024.2.2, freezes every day multiple times and loses a bunch of progress for me. As described in another comment, when I force-quit and re-open it opens a bunch of super outdated windows. Updating to 2024.3 to see if that helps

Edit: yup definitely still happening. I keep losing all my settings
