Tried to push my changes.

Steps to reproduce

Just pushed changes. Other commands seem to work fine as far as I have seen.

Did this work in previous version of GitExtensions?

When I manually installed .NET 6.0 (dotnet-sdk-6.0.403-win-x64.exe), then it worked fine.

You only need .NET Desktop runtime, unless, of course, you're building .NET apps.

[Peter-Svahn]

So, what is the problem? I installed Git extensions using the installer for the mentioned version, and without having .NET 6.0 installed it crashes when do a push. If this .NET version is required, should not the installer install it?

When starting GE, there is a bootstrapped check that .NET is installed but there are also NET popups that are not specific with what to install. There are also issues with checks after changes before resets.
So this is not as simple as it seems.
