ST-Sim version 3.3.14 incompatible with SyncroSim version 2.5

Issue: A user experienced the following error when updating to the beta release of SyncroSim (version 2.5) and then trying to load an ST-Sim Library.

    An unhandled exception has occurred.

    Could not load type 'SyncroSim.Core.Forms.LayoutProvider' from assembly 'SyncroSim.Core.Forms, Version=2.5.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

Solution: This error is caused by an incompatibility between the version of ST-Sim on the stable package server (v3.3.14) and the new beta release of SyncroSim (v2.5.2). To fix this issue, you must install the beta version of ST-Sim (v3.4.0). Follow these steps to install:

Step 1: Open SyncroSim 2.5 and then open the Packages window by selecting File > Packages….

Step 2: Select the Update… option from the bottom-left of the window. This will open a window showing all available updates from the SyncroSim beta package server.

Step 3: Check the box next to the stsim package from the list of packages. The version number should be 3.4.0.

Step 4: If you have ST-Sim SF installed as well, make sure to also check the box next to the stsimsf package. The version number should be 3.4.0.

Step 5: Click OK.

You should now be able to load your ST-Sim Library without any issues.
