Android Studio hangs when I open any dialog box [duplicate]

Question

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!

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Go to the Apple Menu, select System Preferences > General. In the Prefer tabs when opening documents option, select "never". Then restart Android Studio.

Answer 3

I solved by clicking the  -> System Preferences -> General -> Prefer Tabs and select "never". I have no problem using the latest version of IDEA, it may be that the version of IDEA on which Android Studio is based low.
