### Apache NetBeans version Apache NetBeans 21 release candidate ### What happened On the new NetBeans IDE 21 if you end up activating some IDE features via Options panel (e.g. by selecting the Java tab, which activates Tools) the IDE ends up in a broken state. In this state trying to create e.g. a new Maven project fails after selecting the project type, you first get "Configuring java cluster" and afterwards it briefly flashes "Activating Java SE" before ending up on an empty screen with title "Finding Feature". Creating a new project (e.g. Maven -> NetBeans Platform application) on a fresh installation before accessing any of the options menus circumvents the issue and the project is created correctly. Once the IDE ends up in the broken state it doesn't seem possible to recover by restarting the IDE, unless you clear the caches manually first. I'm using Windows 11, reproduced the issue using both JDK 21 (prepackaged with the community installer) and JDK 17 (JetBrains). (Side note, seemed like the community installer didn't configure the prepackaged JDK correctly, so I added the jdkhome manually to the netbeans.conf file.) Also tried the standard installer and binary zip, same issue. Cleaned up old caches and userdirs between attempts. On my previous NetBeans installation (20-rc1) the issue doesn't appear. ### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component Java / Maven ### How to reproduce After fresh install on Windows 11, access Java options panel before doing anything else. Afterwards creating new Maven projects fails. ### Did this work correctly in an earlier version? Apache NetBeans 20 ### Operating System Windows 11 ### JDK Prepackaged JDK 21.0.2; OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 21.0.2+13-LTS ### Apache NetBeans packaging Apache NetBeans provided installer, Apache NetBeans binary zip, Third-party package ### Anything else Here is a log of me opening the IDE, clicking the Java tab in the options menu, trying to create a NetBeans Platform Maven project, trying to create an empty pom project, and closing the IDE. There are some repeating warnings (below) and some error after the system gives up.
