Hi!
Could you please provide some more information about your issue:
Please updete your PT version to 0.84,1, which is our latest hotfix.

Please send me

• the app's location and filename on your system (if it dosn't contain confidental information)
• a bug report, wich you can create by clicking on the bug icon in the PT's flyout window. Just to be sure, please initiate a new unsuccessful capture before creating the bug report, to have the error in the logs.
• ideally the best way to find the bug would be to test with the actual app, but of course it is acceptable if you don't want to share the app. However, if you feel so, you can send a download link to your app (or installer). In any case we will first check the logs and start the fix without the app.

Hi.

I don't want to attach the whole bug report file, too many files in it which i don't know what they contain. I found some relevant entries in Workspaces\ProjectsSnapshotTool\Logs\v0.84.1\log_2024-09-10.txt...

I also tried attaching the source project (a default WinForms VB.NET Framework project as a zip file), but it seems github does not let me(?). It tries to attach it and then immediately removes it from the post. If you open visual studio, create a WinForms VB.NET Framework project and just compile it, you can use this exe for testing...

Hi!
Just to be sure, your app is located in C:\z\Debug\WindowsApp1.exe and you can access it without problems?
Thanks!
