Hello,

I have issue with NB suddenly stopped seeing external changes to files. I am 
using this feature since NB 6/7 (or so) and it has been working well all the 
time.

Suddenly, it stopped working. I have suspicion that it is related to updating 
the JDK recently.

I am using the feature together with remote-upload feature of project, but it 
does not work even without remote upload.

Before, when I created a file or folder in Finder, NetBeans automatically 
refreshed and showed the changes in the Project/Files tree. 

Now I have to run the "Scan for external changes" menu command all the time, 
which completely wastes my workflow, because I use external watchers (webpack 
or gulp) to build the project and then rely on NetBeans to upload the changes 
to remote server.

I have tried almost everything, googled whole day but found no solution, 
nothing helped:

creating another, clean project
reinstalling NB, updating from version 14 to 15
uninstalling and reinstalling JRE
uninstalling and reinstalling JDK
checking permissions
enabling Security>Accessibilty and Security>Full-disk access to NetBeans and 
java processes
re-enabling "Miscellaneous > Files > Enable auto-scanning of sources" option in 
Options
restarting NB
restarting Mac
.. everything above in different order, several times :(


My configuration:
================

- JDK version installed: jdk-18.0.2.1.jdk
- JRE version: build 1.8.0_341-b10
- OS: Mac OS 12.5.1 Monterey, Intel x64



Any idea, anyone? 

Thanks for help,

Best,
