Quest crashes on win 11

System.InvalidOperationException: An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'PresentationCore, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies.

Don't know what's the issue here. It worked just fine on win 10 before I upgrade to win 11. I tried reinstalling it but with no results.

Update on the issue:

I have tried to download windows 10 virtual machine and install Quest there as if I would be using win 10. My suspicions confirmed when I could use Quest without any problems on win 10 on virtual machine. I tried launching Quest with win7/winxp compatibility and it didn't worked. So probably the problem lies within win 11 not being compatible with that program.

Can you check what version of .net you have installed? Details of how here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/migration-guide/how-to-determine-which-versions-are-installed

I cannot see anything else that could be the issue, but I must admit I cannot see why you would have a lower version on Windows 11. I will try to investigate myself, but may be a while before I get the chance to.

Thank you for your response. I will try to check what version of .net I have but probably that's going to be tomorrow or the day after. I had one today and will have other 12h work shift tomorrow. Hopefully it won't slip out of my mind.

I have looked into reg edit and my .net version is:

533320

.NET Framework 4.8.1 | On Windows 11 2022 Update: 533320

Also don't worry if you can't look at it at the moment. It's OK just do it when you can.

So I have installed Quest on a PC running Windows 11, with .Net version 533320, and it seems to work okay. I created a room and exits to and from the default room, and created an item. I went in game and checked I could use the exits and pick up the item.

Is it something specific you are doing?

It might be worth uninstalling Quest and re-installing.

Tried to reinstall quest several times already even tried to delete .Quest folder from regedit yet sadly the same crash happens.

Mine was working just fine on Win 11 for a couple of weeks until... tonight. Here's the error msg from tonight's attempt to 'play' the game I created >>

Closing as no repro unfortunately
