This is what i found but i don't think it's specific to the above versions.
When you keep getting loading projects in rider when you enable ncrunch then look if you have .net core 8.0 installed.
I only had .net core 10 installed and that gives an error but not that you can see. Because it was a brandnew nstallation. Had me stumped for a few days.
There is however an error in the event viewer.
