1.18.0 opens then closes

It just closes when I try to open it, I see the command window open for a blink of an eye.
Is this intended? Am I missing something?
I was running 1.17.1 before, no issues.
What does it say if you run it from the command line (instead of just opening the exe)? It should give you more details
Chances are you don't have .NET 8.0 runtime (new version requires 8.0) - it'll tell you that if so, along with which frameworks you do have
Hi @f33d13ack . Can you please run TNUC with the --debug command line argument? It should not be the missing runtime, that's the reason we now use .NET 8 is because they made a prompt if you dont have it installed
Hi a new version, v1.18.1 has been released with many bug fixes. Please try the new version out and report back.
have you tried running the program from a terminal application? If you right click on the folder with tinynvidiaupdatechecker downloaded and open a terminal/command prompt/powershell window there you should be able to run the program (you'll just need to type .\TinyNvidiaUpdateChecker.exe.
I had this issue, it turns out I needed .NET 8.0 x86. I had the x64 version and though that was enough, apparently not the case.
Download and install this, it fixed my issue.

Thanks everyone, turns out I just needed runtime 8.0.6 (x86). I had 8.0.0 (x64) before as well.
To be clear, https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-8.0.6-windows-x86-installer did not work for me, I had to use the desktop version.

Thanks again!
Wait. Does Windows not show a dialog to install it?
For reference, I'm on whatever the latest version of Windows 10 Pro (x64) is.
When I run it through cmd, at the bottom of the prompt message I get:
To install missing framework, download:
https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.NETCore.App&framework_version=8.0.0&arch=x86&rid=win10-x86
Otherwise, for me, if the desktop version of the 8.0.6 (x86) runtime, is not installed, I do not get a Windows dialog to install it when clicking on the executable, I just get a window that flashes on then off, that goes for both 1.18.0 & 1.18.1.
Then this . NET 8 move was pointless...
OK I've added back the .NET 8 installation steps in readme
