1.1.57.0 OpenCode Desktop bug after update: Freezes, terminal loop - No longer usable #13154
Description
Description
I just installed the suggested update 1.1.57.0. When OpenCode opens/also after closing and reopening, a Windows terminal starts up in sequence and closes again immediately.
The entire application becomes unusable and the system freezes. I had to force quit the application to regain access to the system.
Logfiles: C:\Users\<user>\.local\share\opencode\log -> Nothing that indicates an error.
$paths = @(
Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE '.local\share\opencode\log'
Join-Path $env:APPDATA 'opencode\log'
)
$paths | Where-Object { Test-Path $_ } | ForEach-Object {
"`n=== $_ ==="
Get-ChildItem $_ -Filter *.log | Sort-Object LastWriteTime -Descending | Select-Object -First 3 | ForEach-Object {
"`n--- $($_.Name) ---"
Select-String -Path $_.FullName -Pattern 'error|exception|fatal|panic|traceback' -CaseSensitive:$false | Select-Object -First 50
}
}

This issue appears to be a duplicate of #13153 - "Tons of shell Windows", which describes the exact same problem occurring after the v1.1.57 update on Windows 11.
Please check that issue to see if there's already a discussion or fix in progress.

I think this is related to the WSL support that was added in the latest update.

@taroj1205 I use OpenCode on Windows, but I also have WSL2 installed for Codex, etc. with Ubuntu.

Duplicate of #13153.
This is a regression from v1.1.57. PR #13084 added Windows app detection that runs
whereandregcommands on startup to check which editors are installed. The code usesstd::process::Commandwithout theCREATE_NO_WINDOWflag, so each command spawns a visible terminal window.The app checks 5 different editors (VS Code, Cursor, Zed, PowerShell, Sublime Text) and runs multiple
wherecommands for each one with name variations. That's why you're seeing dozens of terminal windows spawning.The fix is to add
.creation_flags(0x08000000)(CREATE_NO_WINDOW) to the Command builders inpackages/desktop/src-tauri/src/lib.rsat lines 320 and 421.Closing as duplicate - we'll track the fix in #13153.

I reviewed #13154 and I'm ready to handle it.
If this approach works for you, I can start now.

Quick follow-up on #13154: I am still available to work on this issue.
I can provide an initial implementation update within 24 hours and keep the scope tight.
If assignment changed, please let me know and I will avoid adding noise.

You're right — my mistake.
I missed that this issue was already marked as duplicate of #13153. I won't add more noise in this thread and will step back here.
