I have just updated to 2016.3 and when I try to download a source from GitHub I get:

Cannot run program "git.exe". CreateProcess=2. The system cannot find the file specified.

All my GitHub credentials are fine. There is no GitHub folder in AppData and there isn't one one another machine that is downloading from GitHub fine.

Double check you have the valid git.exe path specified here:

If you don't have a standalone Git installation, you can get it here: https://git-scm.com/download/win.

Double checked. It doesn't help. Screenshots step by step:

P.S. This issue arrises with IntelliJ Community 2018.1.5.

File a bug at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/IDEA with the logs attached (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/207241085). It could be some antivirus related issue or permissions problem.
