new install (i had burp before, never had this problem) opened burp, 64bit, newest version, openjdk, 16 (newest), verified it worked with cmd 'java -version'. Selected 'new project on disk' selected a NON NETWORKED FOLDER, plenty of room on drive. permissions ok. 'next' worked (this failed yesterday due to no java, see above, i have java now). 'use burp defaults', 'start burp' get error: An error occurred when starting a project with the selected options.

Thanks for your message. I've been trying to recreate this issue here on Windows 10 but, so far, I haven't seen the same behavior I'm afraid. Could you email the output from Help -> Diagnostics to support@portswigger.net, please? Also, can you let us know if you have User Options -> Misc -> Performance Feedback -> Submit Anonymous feedback about Burp's Performance enabled?
