I am having the absolute same issue, unfortunately, but I also suspect it stems from the fact that when running normal neovim from Windows Terminal (Powershell) and quitting, it “freezes” until I press a button, once I do that, it goes back to the terminal.

With Neovide, running it through the terminal neovide and then exiting with :q or :wqa, it straight up freezes as mentioned above.

Nvim version: NVIM v0.10.0-dev-0a3505e Build type: RelWithDebInfo LuaJIT 2.1.1696795921

Windows 10 Latest Powershell version.

My nvim config.

FIXED FOR ME I remembered there was this shada issue when exiting Neovim, but I wasn’t getting the notification/warning (most likely due to folke’s notify and how I’ve set it up).

go to nvim-data
shada dir
locate all 0KB files
delete them all

This is what fixed both of the issues I mentioned earlier.
