"Unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)."

This error occurs every time I start the program.
This error doesn't occur when using the 1.3.0 version.

If you ignore the error and continue to the program the "Homepage" tab is just blank. There's still a lot of classes/functions that don't quite deserialize properly in the game I'm working on, so I can't say for sure if the error it's causing any other problems on that end.

Strange, does it tell you the file that cannot be found?

It does not.

Here's a link to a ZIP with a screenshot of the error, and a copy of my install. Hopefully that helps.

Thanks, your copy does run fine on my end.

Have you tried running the app as an administrator?

Have tried running it as admin, as well as installing it as admin. Same result. Is there supposed to be something in AppData\Roaming\EliotVU\UE Explorer\1.3.1 maybe? As that folder is completely empty.

I think I found the culprit, the Homepage requires you to install the prerequisite https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/mi.../webview2/

By uninstalling webview2 I was able to reproduce this error.

Additionally, if you install from the provided setup.exe instead of the .msi file (See https://github.com/UE-Explorer/UE-Explor.../tag/1.3.1), you will be prompted to install the WebView Runtime

Unfortunately the auto-updater only updates from the .msi file!

Oh dang, just saw this. Yeah, installing webview2 solved the error. Great work!

Just want to clerify; When you say auto-updater only updates from the .msi file, do you mean that you have to install from .msi to get the auto update feature to work?
