Cant't configure Screen Saver due to Application Error

PlanetJoe commented 6 years ago

When I try to start "Configure Radom Photo Screensaver", nothing happens. Having a look to the event history in Windows I can see that the start of the configuration program causes an app error and a .net error.

App Error (sorry, I am using German Windows, so the error message is in german):

I'm using Windows 7 SP 1 and have allready updated the system by installing the latest Windows updates as well as I reinstalled .NET 4.7 with the latest version.

Please try reinstalling RPS using the installer (as it should install .NET 4.0 automatically) or try installing .NET 4.0 redistributable from https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=17718 manually. (RPS uses 4.0 rather than 4.7)

I deinstalled .NET 4.7, restart computer, installed RPS (which installed .NET 4.0), restart computer but get the same error in the event history
