Translations Builder Error on Open
On my side Translations Builder opens and works in Power BI Desktop.
My versions of Power BI Desktop and Translations Builder are the same as yours, but I am using .NET 6.0 Desktop Runtime (v6.0.14). Please refer to the following link for instructions to download the .NET 6.0 Desktop Runtime (v6.0.14) and install it, then retry to see if that solves the problem.
Also note that it is recommended that you use the default Folder path value of C:\Program Files\Translations Builder\ when installing Translations Builder.

Hi Jarvis. Thanks for your response!
My default file path is the same as yours:
And I did install the .NET 6.0.14 version you mentioned via the link, and am still getting the same error message.
This screenshot shows you which versions of PBI desktop, Translations Builder, and .NET I'm using.
According to the error "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application", this usually means that an unhandled exception occurred during application initialization. You can try running the .NET Framework Repair Tool to repair possible damage. Here is download link: Microsoft .NET Framework Repair Tool is available - Microsoft Support

I've even uninstalled and reinstalled several .NET versions and I'm still getting the same Translations Builder error.
Using the Unhandled Exception link you provided, I also ran a system file check using SFC /scannow via command prompt, made sure my .NET framework is enabled, and scanned for malware.
Since I can't reproduce your problem and can't collect your Power BI logs in this public forum, it is recommended that you open a ticket and a dedicated Microsoft engineer will resolve the issue for you, if you are a Pro account it will be free.
Thank you for your understanding.
