🚨 [MAJOR ALARM] "Google AI Pro" Paid Users being Locked out for 167 HOURS (7 Days)! This is UNACCEPTABLE

ahhhh oh no XDX

I did draw up a new guide! Its got a little bit more detail and i’m also dropping updates since stuff is changing! And when i say i drew it up, i had Grok whip it into a flowchart, image version and rawtext version, it might help when running it again. Its down to much more of a step by step and less psuedo english… Quick question too though - did you reboot in the meantime or hibernate or neither - and, was it around noon or midnight? i’ve been trying to figure out all the little variants this crazy error has, like maybe it needs a reboot i’m thinking - or because there was a network switch, maybe it needs a signout reboot signin cycle? Also - they introduced over the weekend what i think might be a regular “security sweep” action every 12 hours where if it likes your “papers” you are fine to carry on with 5hour resets and if theres a discrepancy, off to the gulag for 7 days. But also, if you’re in the gulag but your papers check out on that 12 hours sweep - they let you out early. Thats what i’ve kinda been seeing - its like whackamole! :avocado:

START – Seeing 7-day (168-hour) timer instead of normal 5-hour refresh

Quick check (answer these – helps know what’s happening):
• Is this a 7-day lockout / 168-hour lockout?
• Timers flipping between 5h ↔ 7d recently (around Noon and Midnight PST for many)?
• Have you used copious / heavy usage lately / multiple full real usages?
• Did this happen after zero / very low usage / immediately on launching?
• Do you have multiple Google accounts / profiles signed in?

If YES to any of the above → Definitely follow the steps below.
If NO to all → Follow the steps anyway (it’s safe and fixes most cases).

Fix Default Browser + Google Account Mismatch (Core Fix)

Close Antigravity completely

Set your default system browser to one with ONLY ONE Google profile and login

That single login MUST be your AI Pro/Ultra/Personal account (not Workspace/main/other)

No other Google accounts or profiles signed in anywhere in that browser
↓
Windows tip: Use Chrome Canary as default (keeps normal Chrome separate for work/personal)
Mac tip: System Settings → Accounts/Internet Accounts – keep only one Google account
↓

Launch Antigravity → Perform sign-in / OAuth
(It pulls credentials from the default browser’s clean profile)
↓

Does the timer now show truthful 5-hour resets (no forced 7-day loop)?
├── Yes → Success! You’re immunized from the security flag.
│     Watch for Windows/browser updates (they can change default!)
└── No → Go to Aggressive Cleanup
↓

Aggressive Cleanup (if still broken)

Remove extra community extensions from Antigravity

In your clean default browser (Chrome/Canary):
• Sign out of Chrome completely (profile icon → Sign out)
• Clear cache & cookies: Ctrl+Shift+Delete → All time → Cookies + Cached images/files → Clear
• (Recommended) chrome://settings/content/all → Search “google.com” → Delete all google.com data
• Sign back in with ONLY your AI Pro/Ultra/Personal account

Uninstall Antigravity

Delete folders:
• userdata/.gemini
• userdata/.antigravity
• %appdata%\Antigravity (or equivalent)
• %localappdata%\Programs\Antigravity

Reboot computer (do NOT reinstall as Administrator)

Reinstall Antigravity fresh

Check clean browser is still default → sign in
↓

Still not fixed? Waiting 5h-12h may automatically resolve, 7d wait may still be required → Edge case (multi-profiles, Mac weirdness, etc.)
Post here with:
• OS (Win/Mac/Linux)
• Exact timer behavior
• What you’ve tried
→ Tailored help coming

END – Post your success story! Help others escape Reset Hell.

│     Tip: For software needing different default browser:
│     - Close Antigravity, ensure LanguageServer process closed in TaskManager
│     - Switch default temporarily → do the sign-in
│     - Switch back to clean Pro profile before reopening Antigravity
