They have completely damaged my install. I no longer have the IDE. Classic Google move.

I did an in-IDE upgrade (!), when i restarted it, it did not show the editor, but the agent manager, and there is no longer a way to launch that ide.

So i installed the Antigravity IDE, which the big brains at Google decide to install to the same location as Antigravity 2, and with both being Electron apps, does not work.

Both `Antigraviry IDE.exe ` and `Antigravity.exe` launch the same agent manager.

they also wiped out my whole plugin, themes, config setup...
When we launched the Google Antigravity IDE in November 2026

haha there's a typo! bug bounty on this?

Multiple comments on post https://x.com/antigravity/status/2056795168326754759 tell a lot about decisions and quality of this release.
Half a year and it still coredumps on launch in linux
Run the following two commands in your terminal while inside the ~/Antigravity-x64 directory:

sudo chown root:root chrome-sandbox

sudo chmod 4755 chrome-sandbox

Tried it, and as usual

> Agent execution terminated due to error.

See antigravity subreddit, they never fixed it

Does it crash for anyone? Antigravity used to be rock solid for me, but now I can't even authenticate when it opens. 2.0 Bricked me
Most of the responses on the X thread are people having the same issue
Looks a lot like Codex!
