Upgraded to WIn 10 from 7 and am now getting this error

@Chesspieceface Try reinstalling .net from https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/dotnet-framework-runtime/net462

[Chesspieceface]

I tried that and it wouldn't install because it said the current version was newer or already installed, and then I tried the .Net Repair Tool which also couldn't fix the error.

@Chesspieceface Do you have C:\Users\{profile}\AppData\Roaming\UniversalDeckTracker\error.log file? What are the latest error entries there?

Also you can try deleting entire C:\Users\{profile}\AppData\Roaming\UniversalDeckTracker\ folder (but back it up somewhere just in case).

Deleting did nothing

According to https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dsui_team/2013/11/18/wpf-render-thread-failures/ one of the common causes is video hardware or drivers issues. Anyways, it's not something I can debug and doing in-place upgrade from 7 to 10 (skipping 8 and 8.1) might bring any number of problems. I can only recommend doing a clean install of 10 and updating all drivers to latest versions.

[Chesspieceface]

I can't do a clean install, this was a digital upgrade from 7 from Microsoft. I have disabled and cleaned all .NET components and then reanabled and redownloaded them and the issue persists.

[Chesspieceface]

There was no option to Upgrade to 8 and then 8.1 before 10 that's not how Microsoft does things. .Net framework is an integrated part of Win 10 and very difficult to even repair or uninstall... I've spent hours trying to troubleshoot this... I don't know what more I can do and I've been using your tracker since it was released with no issue.

[Chesspieceface]

I got Microsoft to digitally refresh My install and that did resolve the issue

Nice! So it was indeed some side-effect of a Windows upgrade. Good to know.
