As far as I understand, this property auto-upgrades the XP dialog to the Vista dialog. We need to double check if this is relevant on the OSs that Core ships on. Once this is understood, we need to update the docs - https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-api-docs/blob/master/xml/System.Windows.Forms/FolderBrowserDialog.xml and consider making this property obsolete.

Supported OSs: https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/3.0/3.0-supported-os.md

Using the old (pre Vista) file browser dialog is still supported. This isn't worth spending time on.
