What This Means

This error occurs when a program attempts to call a function with a parameter that is not valid or not supported in the current context. It is typically caused by a bug in the software rather than a user mistake.

What You Should Do

This error is best resolved by the software's developer. Please contact the manufacturer or support team for the application that triggered this error.

When reaching out, include the following details to help them reproduce and fix the issue:

  1. Software name and version — found in the app's "About" menu or installer.
  2. Operating system — e.g. Windows 11 22H2, Windows 10 21H2.
  3. Steps to reproduce — describe exactly what you were doing when the error appeared, step by step.

  5. Screenshot or error log — attach a screenshot of the error message or any relevant log files if available.

Providing these details will give the developer the best chance of identifying and fixing the problem quickly.
