Unhandled exception when entering settings in PrePoMax v1.3.5 on Windows 11

Hi,

whenever I try to access Tools → Settings in v1.3.5 on my laptop with Windows 11, I get “Unhandled exception has occured in your application … The method or operation is not implemented.” error and I have to click Quit. Then PrePoMax is closed after a few seconds. Here’s what is displayed as Details in this error message:

This problem doesn’t occur on my other computers with Windows 8.1 and with Windows 10. Previous versions were working fine also on Windows 11. Would it be possible to fix this ?

I have only one Windows 11 computer. It is a laptop and if I access the Tools → Settings form, for me everything works fine.

I think I know where the problem is but I cannot test it directly.

Matej · October 3, 2022, 6:35pm

Did you use the settings from the older PrePoMax versions? If so, can you share them with me?

FEAnalyst · October 3, 2022, 6:47pm

I didn’t copy the settings.bin file from the older version. I just unpacked the new version, started it and went to Tools → Settings where I encountered this error.

Matej · October 3, 2022, 6:52pm

I will try to test this behaviour on some other Win11 PCs. I hope I will be successful.

Matej · October 3, 2022, 7:01pm

Can you please test this .dll in the .zip container? Copy it into the PrePoMax/lib directory to overwrite the original one.

UserControls.zip (72.2 KB)

FEAnalyst · October 3, 2022, 7:17pm

It works with this file, the error message doesn’t appear when I enter the settings. Thank you very much for fixing this so quickly

Matej · October 3, 2022, 8:03pm

Please, do some more test by using different forms with property grids on them. I will replace the .dll in the release version if everything works as it should.

FEAnalyst · October 3, 2022, 8:22pm

What exactly should I do ? Do you mean simply changing different settings in Tools → Settings, then restarting and going back to Tools → Settings to make sure that the error doesn’t occur anymore ?

Matej · October 4, 2022, 3:59pm

I thought of testing other forms that use the control shown in the bottom window highlighted in red. Almost all of them have them and the bug shud affect all of them.

Matej · October 4, 2022, 6:58pm

I have updated the v1.3.5 files to fix this bug.
