Hello!

In the error, I see:

Caused by: com.intellij.platform.instanceContainer.internal.InstanceAlreadyRegisteredException: com.tang.intellij.lua.project.LuaSettings

It's caused by the EmmyLua plugin. Please remove the plugin's folder or .jar file from the IDE plugins' directory - after that, you should be able to start IDE without the problems.

Hello! 

Thanks for the hint. There's no file called JetBrains nor Clion in the directory “Library/Application Support/ Jetbrains” mentioned in this link IDE plugins' directory . However, I have tried to deinstall and then install Clion again on my machine, didn't affect the error. I also tried to find the Lua plug-in within Library/Preferences and  Library/Cache, also in vain. 

Any hints?

Uninstallation doesn't remove the IDE settings, that's why it didn't help.

Could you please double-check the ~/Library/Application Support directory mentioned in the web help? Please mind ~ at the beginning of the path. It means /Users/<user_name>.

Hi, I've just double-checked, this time by using the terminal to navigate through the folders instead of the Mac's Files Explorer: Finder. I've finally found the Lua plugin and deleted it.  

Many thanks to you!
