My project builds with normal warnings. I turned on Code Analysis on Build, but nothing improved the situation. After update to VS 2022 17.8.5, from 17.0.6, I get these errors when debugging or starting my project: Exception thrown at 0x00007FFE55B0E1E0 (ntdll.dll) in My_CLR.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. On another computer, still at VS 2022 17.0.6 I have no problems. The application is a CLR application with .NET 4.7.2 and C++. Where to start fault tracing?

    Hi, @Dahl, Oskar

    I am using v17.8.5.

    The program is caused by entry point. Remove the entry point and the program works well.

    Here is a printscreen of how the crash looks. I will try to produce some kind of minimal sample, but it will take time. I just wish it was possible to install older visual studio products for cases like this.

    Issue seems to be same as: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/CRT-crash-when-loading-mixed-dll-from-N/10559475?space=21&sort=newest Thing is I don't use any external DLLs, just what is needed for CLR. If I switch Platform Toolset to V142, the issue goes away. I think it is very hard to even setup a CLR C++ application with .NET for GUI - but it is something that is needed.

    Here is a minimal setup (Taken from the Visual Studio Example code) That does not work with VS2022, but works fine in VS2019 https://fastupload.io/yp0tOENW5SGUoRq/file
