I'm having the same issues lately. Had to close and re-open my projects too to get around this.

I have exactly this problem!

When this happens I have these errors on the console:

Thanks for contributing!

It appears that this is being caused by the pigments package, not fuzzy-finder itself. It may be that there is still a bug in fuzzy-finder. If so, we'll need the maintainer of the package that is causing the problem to help track that down. You should file this issue on their repository so they can either fix the problem or tell us where the problem is coming from. The Atom FAQ has information on how to contact the maintainers of any Atom community package or theme.

I filled a bug on atom-pigments rep and they said that they think it's not a problem of pigments.
Indeed ... I disabled pigments ... and the problem persists and I still get the errors but now not referencing pigments:

After concluding that it was not pigments fault, I started to disable all my extensions one by one ... and the one that was causing the problem (at least .. if I disabled it I don't get this problem and the errors in the console when invoking fuzzy-finder) was atom-elixir - https://atom.io/packages/atom-elixir

[creattico]

I have a similar issue. I store files and projects on google drive file stream. It has worked until now, but from a few weeks when I try to use fuzzy finder, Project is empty appear at bottom. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem. On console, these errors appear:

Interestingly enough, I have a related problem: My project will report as empty when there are no matches for my search term, but if my search term has matches it displays correctly. Bug persists even when I disable every non-core package. My problem is less annoying (more of a UI error than an actual performance error), but as I thought it might be related, I'm posting it here.

[saivan]

I don't know if this is the same issue. But upon updating atom, I'm getting the same thing. It seems to be somehow related to the updated fuzzy-finder. I have a few folders in my project, and it insists that my project is empty. Turning off ripgrep seems to fix it

[rsese]

Since it sounds specific to ripgrep @saivan, can you leave a comment in #379? If you could also share a minimal example and steps to reproduce, that would be super helpful too.
