Authentication library used by Storage Explorer has failed to start

Hi, when I start my StorageExplorer an error message is shown when the UI has initalized:

The authentication library used by Storage Explorer has failed to start properly. Please ensure you have .NET Framework 4.7.2 or greater installed. If .NET Framework 4.7.2 or greater is already installed then refer to the troubleshooting guide for help. Verbose authentication logging has been enabled.

Error:connect EPERM \\?\pipe\8863f4aaaba147d294f6df694da93123
  • OS: Windows 11 Enterprise (Version 21H2 22000.978)
  • StorageExplorer: v1.25.1
  • All the prerequest are checked. .NET 4.8 (even higher) is available (it is a developer machine with Visual Studio & Visual Studio Code installed)
  • The authentication logs are attached: 2022-10-07-StorageExplorer-1.25.1-logs.zip

I allready tried to uninstall and install StorageExplorer (for user and all users), tired to execute in any installation as a normal user and with admin privileges - nothing worked.

So if anyone could have a hint for me - that would be really great 🧑🏻‍💻💡😃!
