Describe alternatives you've considered for a starting point, we can update to .net 4.8 and separate the program (especially UI and Core) step by step. then we could, change the WinForm to .net core / .net 6 later.

Also I don't care most of the warnings. Some how you can configure the warnings, to get much less.

I started the PR here, to fix DPI autoscaling we need to update to .NET 4.8. Autoupdate seemd to work quite straightforward.

@svenhb The PR title was about .net version update, so I linked PR here. In the app manifest, I marked support till Win7. Windows XP indeed is too old to support. No prob, glad to help, amazing software.
