Short Description of the Bug (in one or two sentences)
When I try to add a repository to VIPM in the repository manager the "VIPM - VI Package Repository" dialog doesnt close
and the modal window is blocking the application. VIPM needs to be closed from the windows task manager and when reopended the added repostitory is not there any more.

Version Information

VIPM Version and Build: 2023.1 (Build 2489)

Operating System Version:
Windows 10

LabVIEW Version:
LV2021 SP1

LabVIEW Bitness:
64-bit

Virtualization or Processor Version Information
No!

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open VIPM
2. Go to Options
3. Got to Repository Manager
4. Press "+" to add a repostiory and enter name.
5. Both pressing "ok" or "cancel" freezes the application

Expected behavior
The repository gets added the the dialog disappears.

Actual Behavior
The dialog stays and cannot beclosed. Probably its a modal dialog.

Screenshots

Anything else you'd like us to know?
This is blocking the use of user repositories, a major feature of the pro version.
