Hello, I tried your tool, but when i open file the tool has stopped
How to fix this?
Sorry my bad english

After it crashes, open event viewer and look in Windows Logs -> Application. There should be a .NET Runtime error. Paste the stack trace from there so I can see what's going wrong.

Like this:

Also, if you have a file you can send that will help too.

Looks like this is an Avalonia bug specifically on Windows 7.

Other people have reported that here:

• Open and save file dialog crash on Windows 7 ( maybe duplicate #1700 but still issue) AvaloniaUI/Avalonia#3272
• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57257928/avaloniaui-argumentexception-being-thrown-when-openfiledialog-is-used-in-windo

So there's not much I can do until Avalonia pushes a fix.

I played around a bit with trying to open files in a windows 7 vm and found out that it seems to crash when opening the file from Libraries/Documents. When opened from UserFolder/My Documents opened it fine.

Bad:

Good:
