IDE hangs on startup: "panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range"

Continuing the discussion from My arduino IDE 2.2.1. is stuck on the loading screen:

Hi @imethan007ahahahah. It appears you put something like file:// into the IDE's Additional Boards Manager URLs preference.

Unfortunately it won't be possible to remove the bad data from the preferences using the IDE's Preference GUI since the IDE won't start up now, so it is necessary to remove it directly from the configuration file where this preference is stored. I think it will be most simple to delete the configuration file. This will force Arduino IDE to generate a valid configuration file on the next startup, using the default configuration values.

I'll provide instructions you can follow to do that:

Close the Arduino IDE window if it is running.
Delete the file at the following path:
```
c:\Users\Ethan\.arduinoIDE\arduino-cli.yaml
```
Please be careful when deleting things from your computer. When in doubt, back up!

Now start Arduino IDE again. Hopefully it will start up and work as expected.

Note that the IDE preferences that were stored in this file will have been reset to the default values. If you had customized either the "Sketchbook location" or "Additional Boards Manager URLs" preferences before, you'll need to select File > Preferences... from the Arduino IDE menus and then set those preferences once again after performing the instructions I provided above.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.
