Can't connect to posgresql databases
Hello,
I have been unable to connect to any postgresql databases after my windows 11 updated 2 weeks ago, I was able to connect to postgres databases before that. I get this error whenever I try to connect:
Details: "An error happened while reading data from the provider: 'Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, Version=4.0.4.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)'"

Hi dudea ,
You can try the following:
Ensure that the .NET Framework is up to date, Windows Updates can sometimes cause a mismatch if the .NET Framework version does not match that of the application.
Try reinstalling Npgsql to ensure that all of its dependencies are properly aligned. The Npgsql library is the .NET data provider for PostgreSQL and updates or other changes may have corrupted its installation.
This may be related to the rollout of registry key:
