Ubuntu – IntelliJ Stuck On "Saving '[project name]' settings" when exiting

Lately when I exit IntelliJ (in Ubuntu, Java 21 installed), a dialog box pops up stating "Saving ‘[project name]’ settings" and it never goes away. This used to not happen.

Anyone know how I can figure out what’s going on? I am a bit nervous ever time I end the task that things are going to get corrupted.

Thanks!

I just click the ‘X’ to exit.

Expected settings to save very quickly and the application to exit.

    Workaround:

    1. Click IDE main menu Help | Edit Custom Properties,
    2. add ide.ui.new.file.chooser=true in a new line.
    3. Use File | Invalidate Caches
    4. enable the "Clear file system cache and Local History" option
    5. Invalidate and Restart to clear the file access cache.

    Except the answer above(which didn’t help in my case), I’ve deleted .idea folder in the project.

    My environment:
    MacOS
    Editor: IntelliJ.

    Hope this helps.
