on Apr 13, 2026 Same issue here. Windows 11 Pro (V. 25H2)
Same, after updating from 16 to 17, with ubuntu 24.04, T3-Code-0.0.17-x86_64.AppImage
Simple fix for this before the release: instead of clicking "ok", wait until the backend starts. (Check at http://localhost:3773)
Once started, start a second instance of t3 code. Once the second instance's UI loads, click "ok" in the first instance. Second instance disconnects from backend and then ~10 seconds later connects to the restarted backend and you're off to the races.should be fixed in 0.0.20
Still the same issue in 0.0.20
