modeler3D create_group fails in Ansys 2023.1

Description of the bug

Line 5625 in primitives.py produces an error because self.oeditor.GetChildNames("Groups")[::] returns a tuple instead of a list in Ansys 2023.1. I checked in 2024.2, and it returns a list as expected.

I was able to temporarily work around by casting to list:
all_objects = self.object_names[:] + list(self.oeditor.GetChildNames("Groups")[::])

Steps To Reproduce

Run Pyaedt with Ansys 2023.1
Call the hfss.modeler.create_group function
It returns the following error:
ERROR:Global: modeler.create_group(objects=object_list, group_name=group_name)
PyAEDT ERROR: Can only concatenate list (not "tuple") to list on create_group
