Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Cloned repo, tried to open ElectronNET.sln, the following message appears:

While .NET 4 is not cross platform compatible, just for Windows, it should be replaced with something else...
BTW what the purpose of ElectronNET.Host project?
@FlorianRappl commented on GitHub (Apr 1, 2023):
This is the actual host process (the one running in the Electron shell; that's why the project has JavaScript sources). From an architecture POV this is actually the most important piece as it allows Electron to communicate with .NET (and vice versa).
While true it also does not really matter - .NET 4 is anyway not used here. This is I guess just an historic artifact.
