Android Studio 4.1.1 macOS Full Screen Error

I've got a problem after updating Mac to Big Sur 11.0.1.

All interstitial dialog windows, Device Manager, Preferences, SDK options, and etc, are not opened as interstitials/dialogs in fullscreen mode, but as a tab in-app. Then, Android Studio freezes and is not responding.

i.e.: Commit Changes Window

Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks!

System Preferences > General > set Prefer Tabs to never when opening documents.

Alternatively, run this on Terminal and restart Android Studio:

defaults write com.google.android.studio AppleWindowTabbingMode manual

This works while keeping the tabs active for other apps.
