add message for legacy systems on crash #12

Closed aspriddell closed 3 years ago

aspriddell commented 3 years ago

this is a common error that is caused simply because the user has a 10+ year old copy of windows, which the Telerik libs don't support. it does say in the getting started that windows 10 is required but I'm guessing it's ignored/not read.

If the app crashes and it's running windows 7 it might be worth adding a message telling them it's probably an OS level issue that we can't/won't fix

for anyone having issues with win7, updating to SP2 apparently fixes the issue

aspriddell commented 3 years ago

going to pin this as this looks more than manageable with all the modifications we do the libs https://www.telerik.com/forums/radglyph-fileformatexception#rEugfHgz8k257TiQ3deO5g

and it'll fix all windows 7 direct-crashes

the latest copy adds the fix (although not hopeful it'll work) and if the system is running old windows tells the user it's unsupported in the event of a crash
