AdGuard installs correctly but does not load because of a .NET error about adguardforwindows HOT 4 OPEN

@sanjayen Hi and sorry for a huge delay.

1. Please, remove the app via advanced uninstaller and install the latest Beta build then check if it works
2. Check whether there is adguard.exe process in Task Manager and if so, kill the process then try to launch AdGuard again
3. Do you have any programs affecting network traffic? It could be antivirus/firewall/vpn

@sanjayen any update?

@Aydinv13 apologies but have been caught up in work. Will try this over the weekend and revert.
