Unity 2021.2.x and greater exception: "ArgumentException: Value must be a Com object." #112

Closed music4computers closed 2 years ago

music4computers commented 2 years ago

In Unity 2021.2 and greater the Windows explorer window will come up and you're able to select a file, but then you immediately get an "ArgumentException: Value must be a Com object." exception upon confirming the selection. Any guidance on what this exception means would be appreciated, thanks.

@music4computers in case this project is not being worked on.

You can put a try/catch around "result = fd.ShowDialog(new WindowWrapper(GetActiveWindow()));" and check the contents of fd.filenames. The dialog will still popup and the paths can be retrieved

I ended up just launching a file browser through a background process, but hopefully your solution will help other people running into this issue. Thanks for the help.
