Start NB on a clean userdir (I am doing this with javacard.kit installed, but it probably does not matter). Install a Java Platform - you don't need to finish the wizard, just browse in the file chooser a little. If you have trouble reproducing this, try adding a Java Card platform first. Close the platform wizard. Now click Add Platform again. On the file chooser page, there is a file chooser but it is always empty. You can navigate directories, and browse the folder combo box, but the files view never shows anything. Happens with Java or Java Card platforms. Does not work until a restart. I'm guessing something goes wrong with the custom FileSystemView that badges potential platforms?
