System.InvalidCastException

[graphixillusion]

Hi there. First of all, thank you for all the effort about fixing this annoying bug. I can confirm that it still occurrs under Windows 10 version 1809. So looking for a solution, i found this page but i got an issue during the run so let me explain it. When i launch the tool, i choose the option to fix one interface: on my system, the interface i want to fix is the number 0. I enter 0 then press enter. At this point, nothing happens: just the blinking cursor to a new line. If i hit enter again, this error will show up:

System.InvalidCastException: Cast non valido dalla stringa "" al tipo 'Integer'. ---> System.FormatException: Formato della stringa di input non corretto.
   in Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ParseDouble(String Value, NumberFormatInfo NumberFormat)
   in Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ToInteger(String Value)
   --- Fine della traccia dello stack dell'eccezione interna ---
   in Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ToInteger(String Value)
   in ShareFix.MainModule.FixRegistry(Boolean silent) in C:\Users\Filippo\Documents\GitHub\ShareFix\ShareFix\ShareFix\MainModule.vb:riga 107
   in ShareFix.MainModule.Main() in C:\Users\Filippo\Documents\GitHub\ShareFix\ShareFix\ShareFix\MainModule.vb:riga 26
Press a key to exit

Any clue?

Hi Gabe & Filippo, Hmm... I think I see the problem.  Line 107 is asking for another value.... but the app already has the value.     ElseIf Integer.TryParse(input, Nothing) Then         Dim indexToFix = CInt(Console.ReadLine) I'm thinking it should instead be:     ElseIf Integer.TryParse(input, Nothing) Then         Dim indexToFix = CInt(input) While you're at it, it looks like this line is wrong as well (should show 0...N instead of 1...N):     Console.Write("Please select index of interface to fix (E:exit, A:All, 1..N: single interface):") Let me know if you need me to post it and send you a pull request... Note that I haven't tested these, just trying to get it in email here. Regards, Glen Starrett

P.S.  For a quick workaround, just enter the same interface you already entered again (in this case 0).
