@c0m94d3 as this seems to be a bug in OpenJDK I am considering to make an OpenJDK bug report. But for doing so I need to be able to reproduce the issue.

Which version of Jadx were you downloaded? because of the used Java version it could be jadx-gui-1.4.2-with-jre-win.zip - is this correct?
Where did you extract the downloaded ZIP file to? What other file operations by other programs were active in the folder where jadx-gui-1.4.2.exe was saved to when you opened Jadx?

Sorry, for the late response. @jpstotz
I am using the latest release, Jadx 1.4.2, the error was consistent with jadx-gui-1.4.2-with-jre-win as well as jadx-gui-1.4.2-no-jre-win (yes, i installed jre separately for this).
I extracted the zip under C:\Users\<user>\Documents\newprj\. No, other operations were active from what i remember.
Update : The problem fixed itself, I can't reproduce the problem anymore. Running jadx-gui-1.4.2-with-jre-win.
