Question

SMT32CubeIDE continuously opens a DOS shell

Hi,
I had this problem since today.

When I open the program, a DOS shell opens continuously (every 5 seconds or so). The cursor changes context continuously and it is impossible to develop any applications.

I have tried:
1) search in update, and in settings how to remove this unwanted opening.
2) make a new workspace
2) uninstall and install the version
3) remove the support folders inside the users folder

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

I made a screenshot to shell, but unfortunately it does not write anything.

In my case worked out next instruction:

 

1. Check for External Scripts or Services

  • Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) and look for any STM32-related processes (especially ST-LINK_gdbserver.exe or javaw.exe) that could be spawning the DOS shell.
  • If found, try ending the process and restarting STM32CubeIDE.

Process was: Admin by request.
