Bootstrap .NET error

[deciton666]

Describe the bug
I get an MRBBootstrap.exe window telling me to install .NET Desktop Runtime to run this application.
The issue is that I have already done this.
Additionally the "Download it now" button does not work, but I guess that is some .NET issue.
The "Download link" is just "?gui=true" which makes no sense.

dotnet --list-runtimes
Microsoft.NETCore.App 6.0.13 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
Microsoft.NETCore.App 6.0.29 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
Microsoft.NETCore.App 8.0.24 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 6.0.29 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App]
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 8.0.24 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App]

The error window even says that it has detected version 8,0.24.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Help -> Check for updates
2. Click on "update"
3. See error

Expected behavior
It should download and update to the new version.

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11
• Browser: Chrome
• Application Version: 3.8.0 (latest)
• Database Version 2026.1.1242

Additional context
I even tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the latest version.
Tried both the installer and the archive variants. Same issue with both.

This issue is cause by a missing file which tells the bootstrap updater which .NET version to use. I am working on a deployment that will fix this.
