Different crash on startup

[AntonioPedro6]

This one is similiar to #22 but it seems to be for different reasons.

System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'SteamShutdown.Steam' threw an exception. ---> Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: �. Path '', line 1, position 3. at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextReader.ParseValue() at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextReader.Read() at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReader.ReadAndMoveToContent() at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReader.ReadForType(JsonContract contract, Boolean hasConverter) at Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.JsonSerializerInternalReader.Deserialize(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, Boolean checkAdditionalContent) at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer.DeserializeInternal(JsonReader reader, Type objectType) at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(String value, Type type, JsonSerializerSettings settings) at SteamShutdown.Steam.FileToAppInfo(String filename) at SteamShutdown.Steam.UpdateAppInfos(IEnumerable'1 libraryPaths) at SteamShutdown.Steam..cctor() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at SteamShutdown.Steam.add_AppInfoChanged(AppInfoChangedEventHandler value) at SteamShutdown.CustomApplicationContext..ctor() at SteamShutdown.SteamShutdown.Main()

That question mark with the diamond shaped background shows up as an empty small square with UTF8 enconding. Also with W10 x64 with 3 library folders.

Here is the appmanifest file - https://ufile.io/sdb8civm

Thanks for your report.

The file you attached works fine for me. Could you please tell me which language your Windows 10 system is set to?

Ah and one more question. How do you know it crashes at appmanifest_228980.acf file?

[AntonioPedro6]

System language is set to English_US and I don't know if it crashed at that file, I sent it just in case it was necessary.

Almost one year later, sorry for that Does that problem still persist?
