Downloading index status Frozin on Display in IDE

When viewing IDE in WIndows 11, IDE 2.3.3, I get this downloading message and is frozen on the display. I did not initiate a download of this.
"Downloading index: library_index.tar.bz2"
How can I remove this message.?

The IDE is downloading an index associated with the available libraries before updating them. However, there is a bug in IDE 2.3.3 that prevents this happening when the Serial monitor is open

Close the Serial monitor and the download will complete
