.NET dependency retrieval fails

[fasigno]

Hi, I want to report that the autonomous retrieval of .NET 6.0 dependency fails during app installation.

From logs:

2024-01-10 12:23:04.1461 [INFO] - WindowBase: User prompted: 'requires .NET 6.0.2 WindowsDesktop (x64) installed to continue, would you like to install it now?' -- User answered OK

This is an issue with the computer you are running on. As you can see from the stack trace, the error is:

The remote certificate is invalid because of errors in the certificate chain: UntrustedRoot

This means the SSL certificate that Microsoft is using is not trusted by your operating system. This should not be the case unless it's an old / unsupported operating system or it has not been updated.

I knew it could be an issue by my side but I was trying installation process through Windows 10 sandbox and I thought it would had inherited the certificates from normal session. I also tryed on an old windows 10 1809 virtual machine and giving me the same alert I decided to open an issue. Probably not the best environment to try on!
