Expected Behavior

It should start right up

Current Behavior

Entire Rider crashes with no detailed error logging.
I've isolated the problem to Rainbow Brackets.

If i load my solution with it disabled > It starts and loads, if I enable the plugin it crashes. Disabling it again, solution loads.
Seems to have bricked my old solution somehow when I cloned it from my repository using the addon. I had to make a new solution, then add all projects again.
It was at that point, when I finally had a working solution I managed to isolate the problem to this plugin.

Code snippet for reproduce

This is a startup error and thus I have no code snippets to provide.

Pls try to uncheck this option before opening your project:

Just did, seems to have resolved the issue. Good catch from the video, I just saw you can see it crashing right after displaying the changelog.

No clue what element in the readme that could've caused this issue, but might be good to keep in mind if you encounter this for other users as well.

Thanks!

Very interesting... because I already added a try-catch here:

Just created a new issue for the Rider IDE: RIDER-111854

Yep! Seems to be an IDE issue in that case!

[izhangzhihao]

This is now clear: this is a JCEF issue. The workaround is to disable JCEF in the IDE registry (ide.browser.jcef.sandbox.enable key).
