Hello,
Have you updated Intellij through the Toolbox? It seems to be a known issue then: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-237012 If not, see the related question of the bug tracker.
I had the same error with my IntelliJ 2020.1 installation. I deleted my previous IntelliJ 2019.x installation, removed all the old configurations and installed a new copy. Yet, it still failed to start because of this exception.
However, if I use a new user and install a new copy in the new user environment of the same Windows 10. It started perfectly.
I fixed my installation. The previous configurations were copied to a new location to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\JetBrains and %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains which I was not aware of (duh!!!) I was focusing on the old directory locations. I cleared these directories and got it to run with default setup. When I reimport my old configurations the same error returned. I guessed the marketplace plugin was the culprit and deleted %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\JetBrains\IdeaIC2020.1\plugins\marketplace. When I started it again, IntelliJ was up and running.
I hit this same issue with OSX Catalina 10.14.6 when I upgraded from PycharmCE2019.3 to 2020.1. The fix was to remove the ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/PyCharmCE2020.1/plugins/marketplace directory and start Pycharm again. Works fine now.
Run this commad
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/JetBrains/IdeaIC2020.1/plugins/marketplace/lib
thanks, Chris
I got this error when I installed some Markdow plugins. I had to remove the "lib" marketplace plugins folder:
rm -rf ~/.local/share/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/201.6719854.plugins/marketplace/lib
I'm using Android Studio 4.1 RC 1 with the Jetbrains Toolbox on Linux (Ubuntu).
Hi guys,
if your android studio not opening properly after updated.
Just press CTR+H in FileManager (show hidden files). now you can see the .local file.
now go to remove the google file from there. (Path -> local/share/google).
This for Ubuntu users.
On Ubuntu, I solved this error by running following command,
Read the above comments and found that in order to fix this issue we need to delete the marketplace/lib file of whatever Jetbrains IDE you are using.
On ubuntu find the folder using the following command -
```sudo find ~/ -iname "marketplace" -type d ```
then delete the the lib folder in the path provided by terminal, in my case
rm -rf /home/suyash/.AndroidStudio4.0/config/plugins/marketplace/lib
Run the ide again and Bingo!!
