Hello, is anyone else’s projects getting stuck in the “setting up workspace” step when opening a project? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/idxcommunity/original/2X/a/ab91cf32827e616011d084c2e7e9a803c3df1e75.png) ---

Here’s a potential workaround: > [@Workspace does not open any more](https://community.firebasestudio.dev/t/workspace-does-not-open-any-more/14015/2): > > OK, “Reset” on the workspace unblocked me. I was very hesitant click “reset” because I thought it my delete all my files. The dialog that was shown after clicking “reset” explained that the files would be safe but I needed to click that scary “reset” to see it. I’d suggest to rename the “reset” button to something like “restart”. ---

Também estou enfrentando problemas na inicialização do projeto! Simplesmente isso acontece: Ambiente de construção: Não foi possível criar seu ambiente. Inicie o ambiente de recuperação padrão abaixo. ---

When this happens, just click “Restart”. ![Screenshot 2025-06-25 at 9.13.07 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/idxcommunity/original/2X/d/d6e00e2eeecefbbcc71d8cb5e9a125f5fdeab633.png) ---

Can you share the output of your console from the developer tools window? ---

> Unable to create your environment. Please boot into the default recovery environment below. This typically happens because your `/home/user/studio/.idx/dev.nix` file is invalid. It is a very fragile configuration file and cannot gracefully handle errors. If there is an error, your environment will not build. It will go into recovery automatically. Ask Gemini to check that file. ---

Hello, what worked for me was restarting my project. I clicked on the 3 dots next to my project in the list of “My workspaces” and clicked restart. Was able to load up my project after giving the restart some time to complete. ---

I feel ya… I had all my projects managed on GitHub luckily. Switched over to cursor and have been having success working there instead recently.
