Big guy’s solution: PyCharm 2023 starts error reporting
Some students found that after installing PyCharm 2023.1.2 and the early access version of PyCharm 2023.2, an error similar to the above popped up directly when running.
Anyway, don't panic!
Yes, they have bugs.
You need to take a look at its official place first: Start Failed, Internal error: recovering IDE to the working state after the critical startup error
There are several main reasons for the startup failure, and there are mainly multiple possibilities: corrupted or incompatible plugins, corrupted IDE installation files, failed patch updates, corrupted caches, or corrupted configurations.
The solutions to several common situations are as follows:
First, if you get a "java.net.BindException: Address already in use: bind" exception, see IDEA-238995 for a workaround.
Second, delete the third-party plugins directory ( idea.plugins.path is in the user's home directory, depending on OS and IDE version. Note that the default location has changed in 2020.1 release). You can bisect the plugins to find the problematic one and delete only that one, keeping the working ones.
Note: If the installation is managed by the toolbox application, the plugin directory will be located next to the application installation location, which can be found from the installed application's toolbox properties. Look for a directory name that begins with the build number and ends with .plugins, for example 192.5728.98.plugins.
Third, download and install the IDE again from the official website. Your settings and projects will be preserved. When installing from a .tar.gz on Linux, make sure to extract into a new empty directory, not on top of an existing installation.
Fourth, delete the IDE system ( idea.system.path ) directory.
Fifth, in most cases the problem should be resolved, but if the IDE still doesn't start with the same error dialog, you can also try to backup and delete the configuration directory ( idea.config.path ).
Sixth, contact support with the full exception stack trace (you can copy/paste it from the error dialog).
❤️Actually , my suggestion is to download the 2022 version first, which is very useful.
