Bug Waiting for Unity's code in UnityEditor.CoreModule.dll to finish executing.

Opening up a brand new URP project in Unity 2022.2.20, I get this endless loading bar. It also happens upon exiting unity in Unity 2021 LTS. I do not use Plastic SCM or Unity Version Control. All users have Full Control of the Project folder in Windows Security Settings. Any ideas?

 

I miss Unity5 and MonoDevelop. Those two things ran SO FAST!!!

I'm not sure why you mention this, but if you're not using it, get rid of it!

Extra unwanted packages in new projects (collab, testing, rider and other junk):

About the fastest way I have found to make a project and avoid all this noise is to create the project, then as soon as you see the files appear, FORCE-STOP (hard-kill) Unity (with the Activity Manager or Task Manager), then go hand-edit the Packages/manifest.json file as outlined in the above post, then reopen Unity.

Sometimes the package system gets borked from all this unnecessary churn and requires the package cache to be cleared:
