Hi,


I try to run kineovea 2023.1.2 on Windows Server 2022 with .NET 8.
I get following message after start, kinovea crashes:

Unhandled Exception: System.AccessViolationException: An attempt was made to read or write protected memory. This often indicates that other memory is corrupted.

Thanks, very interesting. Unfortunately I'm afraid there is not much I can do about this right now but it confirms that the component used in the file explorer is too old for modern Windows and needs to be replaced.
