I experience the same all of a sudden. 9.6.5 and also in 9.6.8 the same eror occurs. We do nothing with the GIT option, nor have we ever configured it under preferences.

 

Removing the modeler version and re-install does not fix it.

i got support from Mendix by removing folder:

C:\ProgramData\Git

 

which fix my issue.
