Rider or an addon has broken my Unity Project & is preventing it from opening
Hello! After installing Rider on Ubuntu as a bug-checker addon, something it did has broken one of my Unity Projects to the point I can't even open it. It is not a code problem in the project. The code is untouched.
The problem started after I installed the Cline addon to scan my project for errors using AI. I never intended to use it to alter files or correct the errors, and it does not have that permission, but it kept complaining that I didn’t have an offline GIT repository to enable rollback. I thought better safe than sorry and created one.
Since then, I have not been able to open my project & it crashes with Unity errors.
This has persisted even AFTER I copied my entire Assets folder into a brand new project. So at the moment I can’t do a damn thing to my game. It’s driving me nuts. Any ideas?
Some of the errors I get:

Hello Blackmoore ,
Thank you for reaching Rider Forum.
Could you please disable Cline in Settings > Plugins > Installed-Cline - Disable?
Then restart the IDE and open your Unity project.
Let me know if that helps.
Hey Anna Morozyuk ! Thanks for the reply. I actually got so frustrated I formatted my computer to do a clean unity install. So Jetbrains isn't even on my computer right now, but the error persists.
Hello Blackmoore,
Could you check which program occupies the file by running this command in the terminal?
