Issue description

as soon as i open the Godot_v4.6.1-stable_mono_win64.exe file it opens the first windows (Projects) but it hangs and i can not do anything apart from force stopping the app.

Steps to reproduce

Just opening Godot_v4.6.1-stable_mono_win64.exe file

Update 1: the problem is only on the projects window, its fine about 10-15 second and then it freeze. i managed to create a project in that time before it froze and i can work with the created project just fine without any problem. but it is repeatable on the project window. each time i open it it freeze after 10-15 sec. i tried it with internet and without internet and i get same result. will try this on the versions you suggested and report back

@matheusmdx well im sorry but it happend again. tell me how can i extract any kind of logs or stacktrace so i can help track this issue. sometime it has no problem even when i open and close it several times, but i still can see sometimes it hangs and i cant do anything apart from force closing it.

[matheusmdx]

First step is check if this issue is not a regression or if is fixed on latest versions, so please check if the issue happens on 4.5 stable, 4.6.2 RC 2 and 4.7 dev 2, you can download them here

@matheusmdx ok, i will do what you are asking, but i did manage to get some more info. the problem is only on the projects window, its fine about 10-15 second and then it freeze. i managed to create a project in that time before it froze and i can work with the created project just fine without any problem. but it is repeatable on the project window. each time i open it it freeze after 10-15 sec. i tried it with internet and without internet and i get same result. will try this on the versions you suggested and report back.

@matheusmdx also tested on v4.5-stable_mono_win64 and v4.6.2-rc2_mono_win64 and v4.7-dev2_mono_win64, got the same result. after around 10 sec it freeze

If it freezes on 4.5 too it's NOT the move to DX12 by default. Most likely you're hitting some sort of a GPU driver bug

@Zireael07 i did used Godot long time ago (v2 probably) and i don't remember having this issue, does it help if i found a version that this doesn't happen with it? also i don't have problem when i inside the editor, only on project window

Please try changing the project configuration to use the compatibility rendering method to see if this is specific to the Forward+ method, in that case it's an issue with your drivers (you can test by just creating a new project and selecting "Compatibility" in the dropdown, then if it doesn't crash, change it to Forward+ in the top right corner of the editor window and restart the editor, if it crashes then we know that's the reason)
