IntelliJ Idea Cannot Open Project on Catalina Beta 5

August 18, 2019 • ☕️ 1 min read

Just upgrade my IntelliJ Idea to the latest version, 2019.02, then everything breaks. You cannot open any recent projects or folders, nothing happens. First thing first, here is the workaround:

-Dide.mac.file.chooser.native=false

in Help | Edit Custom VM Options and restart the IDE, which disable using native file chooser.

Editor VM Options

It’s a bug of Catalina, NSSavePanel doesn’t call completionHandler on exit.
