Bug Report: Antigravity IDE Corrupts System Permissions, Crashing Other Apps

A user reports Antigravity IDE breaks app permissions, causing Electron apps like Discord to crash on launch. This is due to an injected ACL in %LOCALAPPDATA%. It's a critical flaw, making the IDE too risky to use currently.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. The core issue is Antigravity injecting an AppContainer ACL into the Programs directory, breaking permissions for all subfolders.
  2. This causes Chromium/Electron apps (Discord, etc.) to fail GPU sandbox initialization, resulting in an immediate 0x80000003 crash.
  3. The user suggests a temporary fix of adding a --disable-gpu-sandbox flag to shortcuts, which is impractical and not a real solution.
  4. This isn't a minor glitch but a severe architectural problem where an IDE actively damages the user's OS environment.
