"Save as..." Dialog box freezes entire IDE #5191

Description

@jabelone

I noticed this bug a long time ago but it's still present. This is almost a fresh install of windows 10 and I'm fairly sure it used to do it with Windows 8. Basically, whenever you have the save as window open and try to delete a file/folder, the entire IDE hangs.

Although it hangs, it does actually delete the file/folder though. When I say hang, the entire IDE becomes un-responsive and must be forcefully closed. It's a small bug but annoying if I forget and it happens.

Other info:
Operating System: Windows 10 (64 bit)
IDE Version: 1.6.10
Completely repeatable, happens 100% of the time

I can confirm that this bug still exists. Running the 1.8.2 IDE.

When I did some googling, i found that the bug probably resides in the java.awt.FileDialog. More users found this here. And here.

According to this commit, the bug is fixed in JDK-9. (if im right, dont know that for sure)

I'm experiencing the same issue with Arduino 1.6.8 or 1.8.4 on Windows 10 running Java 8 Update 161
