@bitman - how is this different to @Dexcon directions?

I put forward the Control Panel process because some others on the forum over the years have reported installing .NET Framework directly from Microsoft's website didn't work whereas the more complicated Control Panel process did work.

@Grazie One is Automatic, the other is manually doing it yourself.... Personally, i simply always go to the link bitman provided and download what i want, and keep a copy of the installer as backup.

@Steve_Rhoden - You know me too well! If I can get something wrong….. automatic does me😎

4.8 installed. It makes no difference.... sad....

Did you try the Control Panel install process?

Did you try the Control Panel install process?

Yes.

@Grazie Make sure you also have the latest Microsoft Visual C ++ installed. Sometimes they go hand in hand:

Here is the direct download Microsoft Visual C ++

Here is the link where its from: Link

Also make sure you restart your system after the installations.

@Grazie you are still at windows 10?

I don't know why the compiled version is not working. If you want to try a non-compiled version, here's the script you can save as "Find Regions by Name.cs" and then remove the .dll file and put this .cs file there instead. But the compiled version is still working fine on my systems.

@jetdv,

I copied your text into a new Notepad and named it as you said. I then renamed the OLD dll as OLD, I didn't remove it. Rescan the Script Menu - no luck.

I'm at a loss what could be the problem on your system. Because saving it as a .cs file should be ok.

I’m blessed.😇

I can't tell you why either. It's all working fine here. What error message are you getting with the .CS file (and make sure you ARE using the .CS file!)

Just a note, the only way I know how to install 4.8 is through the Control Panel, bc the download doesn't work, at least on Win10

Gentlemen thanks for all your input. But now I’m taking off for today.

@Grazie Make sure you also have the latest Microsoft Visual C ++ installed. Sometimes they go hand in hand:

@Steve_Rhoden - I followed your instructions. Done. No difference.

@Grazie Sorry to hear....Then it's something specific to your system that is causing this issue.

Right.

Hi Gang! - Edward is still kindly supporting me through this.

I was able to duplicate the error on my Win10 machine (the code above runs fine on my Win 11 machine).

The error appears to be caused by this line:

this.AutoScaleDimensions = new System.Drawing.SizeF(6F, 13F);

Simply changing that line to this solves the problem (so would deleting it):

//this.AutoScaleDimensions = new System.Drawing.SizeF(6F, 13F);

I'm not sure why that line is causing the problem but do know that it fixes the issue. I'm guessing it's related to a Win 10 update as it used to work fine on Win 10 as well as Win 11 and that's a Visual Studio generated line. Interestingly, another script with that exact same line present works fine so I'm not sure what's happening here but getting rid of (or commenting out) that one line does allow it to work.
