Logs
Not much relevant content in the logs. This is the only line written:
2022-02-15T11:32:53.506Z - info: [ui] No submodules found. Skipping "git submodule status"
Additional context
- I have waited about 10 minutes for the operation to finish
- The only solution is to terminate the application from Task Manager
- I have checked that there are no other processes using the file
- I have tried to discard multiple file types (.js, .html, .json)
- I have tried multiple repositories. All repositories are non-GitHub.
- I have tried deleting %AppData%\GitHub Desktop to start “fresh”
- Downgrading to 2.9.6 fixes the problem
- Not directly related, but the application seems slower to start in 2.9.7
I was unsure whether I should open a new issue or comment on #13433 or #13661, but those appear closed by #13436.

My Recycle bin is also set to not set delete items immediately. Plus as I mentioned, my local repo is on a network NAS share in which deletes don’t normally go into the recycle bin. And yes, this was all working before upgrade.
An option to disable discarding changes to recycle bin all together would be stellar
