[Bug] Freezes when starting void
So now that everything works well with extensions, when i start void for the first time, everything's good, but when i close it then reopen a workspace, it freezes without me being able to do anything except closing. It's only when i already have a file opened in the workspace or when i open a file in void from the "Open with Void".
I have exactly the same issue on Ubuntu. Possible duplicate of https://github.com/voideditor/void/issues/416
I'm on windows but yeah, after multiple tests, it appears it's not only when i open files, it's random, when i open a workspace or a file it has a chance to freeze
yes, permanently
It just permanently freezes?
Thanks for reporting, guys. Do you have a slow computer @LemonsSquirrel? Errors are expected on Linux because unfortunately our build pipeline was deprecated by GitHub actions 3 days ago (so we need to upgrade / rebase), but this is unexpected on Windows. Not clear if this is just lag or something we can fix.
i thought this also, but it appears it's not speed because i waited for 10 minutes to see if it was my PC and it was still freezed so i don't think. Plus i don't think my PC is that slow because i used vscodium before and everything loads in like 30 seconds.
Hi Andrew, For Linux: note that I built from scratch, from source.
I've uploaded a video here that shows the bug on my end: https://youtu.be/jKG-gJlGz6k
Thanks for the video - this is helpful to see. More concerned about Windows right now, since we expected that to work. Just pushed a couple changes, should be out shortly and will ask @LemonsSquirrel to test again!
i'm taking the beta download so version 1.2.5.25107, is this the right one or should i be pulling the repository?
Building it soon. It will be 1.2.6... happy to ping when it's ready!
Sorry for the delay, coming soon...

@LemonsSquirrel If you have 10 minutes, could you please try to change one file and re-build?
The fie is: https://github.com/voideditor/void/blob/main/src/vs/workbench/contrib/void/browser/react/src/void-onboarding/VoidOnboarding.tsx
Find the line with:
<VoidIcon />
Comment it out like this:
{/*<VoidIcon />*/}
Then from terminal npm run buildreact (or watchreact), then launch again.
On Ubuntu this solves the freeze issue.
Since i'm on windows, i'm using the .exe built version and not the github source code release one, i tested with the source release and i keep getting errors when i try to install the dependencies so i gave up on it.
