When I try to open a ZIP file I'm getting this error message.

the type initializer for "xamarin.tools.zip.native" threw an exception

I'm running Windows 11 on a Silicon M2 MacBook:

Device name W11Arm Processor Apple Part 000 r0p0 2.00 GHz Installed RAM 4.00 GB System type 64-bit operating system, ARM-based processor Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display

Edition Windows 11 Pro Version 23H2 Installed on ‎03/‎03/‎2024 OS build 22631.3235 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22687.1000.0

Any idea? Thanks in advance...

Which version are you using? The compiled ones are only for x64, no ARM support. If you're compiling the code by yourself then I would recommend to run it in debug mode as the error should give you more information.

I run the executable from package. And is running fine. I can open (import) MDV files, but not ZIP. I have no the opportunity to recompile.

Sorry, can't help there, I have no ARM windows machines but I doubt it would work properly, linked libraries like the Zip one are x64 binaries and Windows in ARM uses an emulation layer to try to run native x64 apps and it's prone to fail.
