Updating from NetBeans 17 to 28 gives me a problem

[peterivarsson]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 28

What happened

I have about 70 java project in my "/Users/piv 1/Documents/NetBeansProjects".
I can se all projects in NetBeans 17.
After trying to switch to NetBeans28, I can only see 2 java projects.

Can the "piv " in projects file path be the problem?

I am using a Mac with the folowing config:
