Have you installed .NET Framework 4.8?

We need it as the base environment.

If you installed .NF 4.8. then please send me the log file in the C:\Users\USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\PRemoteM, I will check out what happened.

Empty event viewer, then start the app, then look into it and give errors.

0xe0434352 is the code for a CLR (.Net runtime) exception. I opened your event viewer log and this is in it:

Application: PRemoteM.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.NotSupportedException
   at System.Reflection.RuntimeAssembly.nLoadFile(System.String, System.Security.Policy.Evidence)
   at System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFile(System.String)
   at VariableKeywordMatcher.Builder.LoadProviders()
   at VariableKeywordMatcher.Builder.Build(System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1<System.String>, Boolean)
   at PRM.Core.Model.KeywordMatchService..ctor()
   at PRM.Core.Model.PrmContext..ctor()
   at PRM.App..cctor()

Exception Info: System.TypeInitializationException
   at PRM.App.Main()

Bug in KeywordMatchService seems to cause this

It might be that you don't have .NET 4.8 because of the line Framework Version: v4.0.30319 and because given exception is System.NotSupportedException.

Hmmm... This is strange as it seems that I do have .NET 4.8 installed but for some reason .NET 4.0 is chosen. See below:

No idea, I have a same .net environment, but eveything work well on me.

Maybe you can give a try on Microsoft Store version?

@VShawn I tested the Microsoft Store version and it starts up normally and without any issue. I noticed, though, that the PRemoteM version is 5.11.2 and not 5.11.1 like the portable version I tested. Overall, I prefer to have the portable version working. Thanks for the feedback!

the difference between 5.11.2 is there, nothing special, I dont think it can fix your ticket.

In case you would like to test here it the portable 0.5.11.2.

@VShawn it's exactly like you said. This 5
.11.2 version didn't make any difference. Hope you can find any leads why this is not working

(*) EDIT: Nevermind @ikvm. Figured it out. I created a "PRemoteM.exe.config" file in the portable directory and pasted the content above and everything worked like a charm :) Thank you!

Thanks for the tip @ikvm !

I'm running the portable version and cannot really find a 'config file' to include the above? Can you please clarify?
