Describe the issue
When the UI tries to execute the Redumper program, it immediately fails with this error
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (1223): An error occurred trying to start process "path to redumper.exe" with working directory "path to directory where redumper is located". The operation was
canceled by the user.
at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithShellExecuteEx(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
at MPF.ExecutionContexts.BaseExecutionContext.ExecuteInternalProgram()
at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunFromThreadPoolDispatchLoop(Thread threadPoolThread, ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state)
To Reproduce

Try to dump something.
Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
The program not to be immediately stopped.
Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
Additional context
I looked up what that exception is linked to, and it does seem to be a permissions issue,
but running as administrator doesn't change anything.

Right click on Programs/Redumper/redumper.exe and check this "Unblock" and press apply.
