I have created an application in visual studio that uses Mysql Connector to access a database of a server. When starting the program in the developing PC it works fine. When i install this program in another PC after some seconds after running there pop ups a error such :

Apparently, some developers using VS2017 who got a Windows update that installed .NET 4.7 have been getting this crash as well, it appears the recommended workaround for now is to turn touch support off.
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/55303/visual-studio-may-terminate-unexpectedly-when-runn.html
With my application, this is not ideal. Has anyone else run into this, and found any other sort of workaround?

Update: Microsoft has now fixed this problem in a manual update (as noted by Jürgen), personally I will stick with the workaround until the fix is in the automatic update because it would be a lot of work to make every user install a manual update.
This is obviously a bug in .Net 4.7 that affects Windows 7 and 8/8.1 systems that have a touch input device. Therefore one can hope that Microsoft addresses this in a future update. Meanwhile the only way to retain full functionality is by uninstalling and hiding the update.
Other option is disabling the stylys and touch support either in app.config (like in your link) or in the code if the app is compiled with 4.6 or newer. You didn't specify why that is not ideal but I assume those features are needed? Notice that the disabling doesn't mean that every app is unusable with touch devices, but rather that they only use features that are accessible with a mouse. Update: Apparently touch device users without a mouse will have trouble using UI that requires scrolling.
Here's the code examples for those who come here seeking quick fix:
In App.config (works with apps compiled with any framework version)
<configuration>
<runtime>
<AppContextSwitchOverrides value="Switch.System.Windows.Input.Stylus.DisableStylusAndTouchSupport=true" />
</runtime>
</configuration>
In code (when compiled with .Net Framework >= 4.6)
protected override void OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e)
{
AppContext.SetSwitch("Switch.System.Windows.Input.Stylus.DisableStylusAndTouchSupport", true);
base.OnStartup(e);
}

Microsoft has fixed the issue with .NET 4.7 meanwhile, see

Locating the source of an UnhandledException

My program seems to have a bug in it which I'm finding hard to track down. The program is multithreaded and quite complex. In a nutshell it communicates with multiple clients using asynchronous sockets and writes to the database.
A System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException is thrown when I hammer the program with client communications and hold down the enter key to spam writes into the database. At some point in time the exception is thrown which I'm catching with the following snippet of code in the constructor of the main window:
VMMainWindow()
{
...
System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher.CurrentDispatcher.UnhandledException += new System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherUnhandledExceptionEventHandler(CurrentDispatcher_UnhandledException);
....
}
static void CurrentDispatcher_UnhandledException(object sender, System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherUnhandledExceptionEventArgs e)
{
string str = e.ToString();
}
I don't have much to work with but I was wondering if someone could suggest some tools or or point me in the right direction to help me detect the location of this exception. The exception in detail is pasted below.

InnerException:

Is it possible that you have multiple threads making concurrent accesses to a collection that isn't thread-safe? Say, one thread removing an item while another is reading or adding? That would definitely cause this type of error. In general, the .NET collection classes (except for those in System.Collections.Concurrent) are not thread-safe. You can have multiple readers, but any modification of the collection is going to require exclusive access--protected by a lock or a reader/writer lock.

It's pretty safe to assume App.g.cs is not where the problem lies, so as you said, there isn't much to go on. So here's my hint to you: look at the inner exception. Those things are quite handy, and I'll be willing to bet you have an inner exception at least one layer deep.

The funny thing is I have a command 'wired' from the View to the ViewModel in just the same way and it works fine.
I'd include the offending code, but the intellisense breaks out at 'No Source Available'. Where is this coming from and how can I get rid of it?!
EDIT:
XAML:
<Grid Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0">
<DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding Path=ObservableCollectionOfActiveObjects}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SelectedObject}" IsEnabled="{Binding Path=IsDoingNothing}">
<DataGrid.Columns>
<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Id}" Header="ID"/>
<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Name}" Header="Object Name"/>
</DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>
</Grid>
ViewModel
private void DoDataGridCommand()
{
if (DoHaveAllTheCollections() &&
selectedObject != null &&
!otherListOfObject.Contains(selectedObject))
{
activeObjects.Remove(selectedObject);
excludedObjects.Add(selectedObject);
RaisePropertyChanged(activeObjectsPropertyName);
RaisePropertyChanged(excludedObjectsPropertyName);
}
}
I hope this helps.... the exception throws just after the DoDataGridCommand() ends...
EDIT2:
I believe I have found the answer.
While playing with the two lists of objects (happened to be ObservableCollections, maybe this makes a difference?), in the example of the 'switch operation' that worked I was adding the object to the new list and then removing it from the old one.
In the one that threw the exception, I was adding it to the collection and then removing it from the other. I guess this is because (and please input would be appreciated if my assumption is wrong), as everything is a reference in C#, I moved the 'pointer' then removed the pointers reference to the old list, when, I guess it didn't exist anymore. I suppose it's a rookie mistake, but I hardly think I deserve demerits! Ah well, at least the problem appears solved! Many thanks for your inputs.

Could you check the data that is being bound to the grid? It looks a bit like the DataGrid is looking for a column/property in the rows that doesn't exist.

Only while running on VS 2010: COMException: Catastrophic Failure: Error Code: -2147418113

I am stuck with this error: while trying to use an old DLL in .Net Framework 4.0
If I change project target type to 3.5 then no error appears.
The strange is that all this happen Only while running inside VS 2010. If I run the executable from Windows Explorer, no problem occurs in 3.5 and 4.0.
Seems like some bug in vshost? VS 2010 Express, or .net framework?
UPDATE: This BUG only happen on WPF Standalone Application, if a change it to XBAP WPF I can use the dll without bigger problems, only a message telling it could no stop debugging.
I will leave this question open here, waiting to see if there is some progress on the connect.microsoft.com about this ticket.
Is there some way to make my .net4 app.config load this specific dll(CobreBemX.dll) using the .net 3.5 ?
I think this is some bug then i submitted it to https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/636697/comexception-was-unhandled-catastrophic-failure
Here is the code where it throws that COMException:
//Cria instância do objeto CobreBemX

InnerException:

If you examine the top of the stack, the method suggests the library is performing some software licensing processing. My guess (and it is a guess) is that the library is using the executable's name and path to locate the license and, because the application is running through VSHost, this is failing causing an error which is expressed as a COM exception.
The fact it works fine outside of VSHost would lend weight to this. You could use a tool such as FileMon to possibly see where it is tripping up.

For now this has no solution other than use XBAP
