Ubuntu 16.04 Project Finder just shows "Discovering Project ..." and nothing happens.

I open it via the command palette because the shortcut is not working for me.

I have saved projects.

@nextgenthemes Can you see any console errors in Atom's developer tools?

The repeating is probably not related that one message come up continuously. The other one came up as I opened the project finder from the command palette.

Seems like there's an issue over on atom for this error (https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/11806). Possible causes are running beta and stable Atom side-by-side. There's a few resolutions listed too like clearing your state cache on startup and clearing Atom's DB. While there's not much we can do to fix the error, we should probably recover better by showing a message of some sort. I'll look into it!
