System.Exception: Method Pin on type MS.Internal.NamedObject does not have a valid method signature

What You Are Seeing?

I can see the above error when trying to open the details of some packages with a mouse right-click. Oddly, the error does not happen when opening the details with a double click. More oddly, I can observe it only with some particular packages. So far I have experienced this behavior with: openorienteering-mapper, qgis, putty. After clicking "OK", Chocolatey GUI crashes for good and must be started over. There is a side-issue, which might or might not be related: After starting the Chocolatey GUI again, the invalid package (the one on its details the Chocolatey GUI crashed) cannot be found with the search-box in the remote packages view.

What is Expected?

Details page opens and no error happens.

How Did You Get This To Happen? (Steps to Reproduce)

1. I opened Chocolatey GUI and then "chocolatey" (list of remote packages)
2. I searched for "QGIS"
3. I right-clicked the "QGIS" package and selected "Details"
4. The "System.Exception" happened

I'm getting the same also. Steps to reproduce. Open details of a package not installed by chocolately but already installed on the system, go back then reopen details. Specifically Brave and Telegram in my case.

I am getting this error. As with OP I am getting it when right-clicking and going to details on programs.

problem still present with chocolatey GUI 1.1.2

[Ethanadams642]

Issue still present but triggers when getting details on some remote packages.

Chocolatey gui v2.1.0.0

Just ran into this myself.

I can reliably reproduce by opening the details page on any package, then opening the details page specifically on the grammarly package. That includes opening the grammarly details page twice.

It seems you must use the context menu to open the details page instead of double-click.

Chocolatey GUI v2.1.0.0
