@Zack-G-I-T I marked this as a duplicate too hastily. At the time you opened this issue, RC1 was not yet released, it was only available in nightly builds. SyncFusion would need to release a new version of their controls that is built on the released RC1 in order to avoid this TypeLoad exception, since there was a significant change between previews. If you continue to experience this issue, please open a ticket with SyncFusion. Thanks!

@samhouts - I did think at the beginning that were 2 diff issues- does not matter now, the important thing is that .net 8 has broken compatability with .net 7 and has left us in a really bad place like the author of this thread and I bet there will be many that use syncfusion controls that will have the same problem. We cannot move to .net 8 till Syncfusion fixes the issues, which they wont till you go stable as part of the policy.. Any suggestions?

You may want to contact SyncFusion to find out if they have preview builds available.
