crash on M1 Mac running Windows 11 home over Parallels #219

Describe the bug

App crashes.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

20220808.5

I installed RibbonX on a M1 Mac running Windows 11 home over Parallels. The Installation worked. Starting RibbonX, opening an EXCEL file works without problems. I also can add "office 2010+ custom UI", customUI14.xml is inserted into the EXCEL file. But when I try to add an example-XML like "custom tab" the app crashes repeatedly.

This behavior is described under "Issues #174" in the comments by "rfn6" and you addressed the issue as solved.

So can you help me right now having the same problem again with a later version?

Thanks for your help!

I made it up running after reading all the other posts on the "ARM" subject -> after installing "VC++ redistributable for ARM64" I got it working. The Info came from #174. So is the installation of "VC++ redistributable for ARM64" mandatory before using RibbonX on a Apple Silicon Mac (M1) running Windows 11 home over Parallels? Then it would be good to add some info on this special subject in the readme file.
