Recently switched over to 2022.1 from 2021.3 (where this problem was not present).

When you kill a Node.js server run configuration in the latest version of IDEA, it now prompts you Terminate batch job (Y/N)? - how can I can I stop IDEA from waiting for this prompt?

This prompt causes a few different issues:

• have to find the Run tool window and answer "Y" when restarting the run config (can work around this by hitting Ctrl F2 to terminate the process).
• causes IDEA to hang if you exit with File | Exit or Alt, f, x while a process is still running (can't use Ctrl F2 to kill it either, have to kill the IDEA process to exit).

Is there any way to tell the latest version of IDEA to not wait for the prompt when terminating the run configuration?

Workaround outlined in the answer helps both of my issues. Note that you must select the node_modules/npm directory for the package manager (I initially thought I was supposed to set it to the parent directory of the .exe).

It's WEB-55457 fixed in 2022.1.1. As a workaround, select path to the npm installation folder instead of the path to the binary in the Package manager field in the run configuration or Node.js IDE settings.
