.NET runtime dependency problem.
GemiNaut doesn't launch when a newer version of .NET 5.0 (5.0.*) is installed. It will only run when exactly .NET 5.0.0 is installed. Tried with as of writing newest version of .NET 5.0 which is 5.0.11 and did not launch. After installing .NET 5.0.0 GemiNaut launched without any problems. Running Windows 10 Pro 21H1.
I'm having the same problem. This is a deal breaker for me since .NET 5.0 is EOL.
Hi Folks - thanks for the feedback. I'm planning to do another build to fix this. Will come back and update this issue when its ready.
.@lloydjatkinson - yes .net versioning was a bit of a nightmare until MS harmonised them properly. I've got a new build which should only depend on .net core 6 - I'll post a link shortly
here is a new build that should only depend on the latest .NET 6

You can build self contained builds with dotnet arguments meaning users don't need the exact version on their machine.

Thanks for the pointer @lloydjatkinson. I've created a self-contained build and installer to go with it. Its a bit larger of course as it contains the .net libs, but it seems to work for me,

Does that work for you?
(update -see link below)
Actually that previous build uses the old installer which will require .net 6 to be installed. This installer should not require it, use this instead

please try the 0.8.14 installer mentioned above - here it is
