Bug Fix for System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Error:>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Text.Json,
Technically the reason is some PCs were lacking some resources required for .net standard and so parts of 2023.7.20 had to be rolled back to use backwards compatible .net 4.8 serialization legacy tech newtonsoft.
Therefore a missing file error was logged and prevented licensing’s to be read and applied.
Error trace : >Error:>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Text.Json, Version=7.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.”
Apologies for those effected it was tested on various desktops and servers and only had issues on some hence why its slipped through the net.. but lesson learnt and noted so we can avoid similar issues with modern tech and legacy.
