Antigravity IDE - "Unexpected issue setting up your account" error on login

Hi Team,

I’m getting the following error every time I try to log into Antigravity IDE:

“There was an unexpected issue setting up your account.”
“An error occurred”

Details:

  • Antigravity version: 2.5.5 (latest, fresh install)
  • OS: Windows
  • I have tried logging in with 7-8 different personal Gmail accounts — same error on every single account.
  • I fully uninstalled the app and manually deleted all leftover data (AppData/Roaming/Antigravity IDE and LocalAppData folders) before reinstalling.
  • Cleared cache, tried different networks, restarted the PC — same error every time.

Since this happens across multiple accounts and after a completely clean install, it doesn’t seem to be an account-specific or local machine issue. Could this be a known/server-side issue?

Screenshot attached.

Thanks!

Hi @App_Run ,

Since this happens across 7–8 accounts on a clean install, your computer is actively blocked from reaching Google’s onboarding server. On Windows, this is usually caused by anti-telemetry tools or privacy scripts redirecting Google endpoints to 127.0.0.1 in your hosts file.

Could you please follow these steps:

  • Open Command Prompt and run: nslookup ``cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com

    If the address returns 127.0.0.1, your system is blocking the connection.

  • Clean your hosts file:

    • Open cmd as Administrator and run:

      notepad %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

    • Delete any lines containing cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com or daily-cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com.

    • Save and close the file.

  • Flush DNS & Relaunch by running in command prompt:

    ipconfig /flushdns

  • Restart Antigravity and log in again.

Let me know is this resolves the issue or the issue still persists.
