IntelliJ File Dialog not loading

Answered

Heyo!
I have just stumbled across a weird error, I was trying to open another project via File | Open
but the dialog keeps on loading endlessly. The bug persists after reinstalling IntelliJ and Invalidating Caches.

Version: 2021.3.3
Build #IU-213.7172.25, built on March 15, 2022

Any ideas?

Most probably caused by an external network drive attached. 

As a workaround you can add the following in Help | Edit Custom Properties and restart the IDE:

ide.win.file.chooser.native=true
sun.awt.windows.useCommonItemDialog=true

This will be fixed in the scope of https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-101218
