Broken form designer? about reclass.net

[KN4CK3R]

No I use the latest version but Visual Studio itself is the (known) problem. Visual Studio is a 32bit app and the designer works by compiling and displaying your form class. You have selected the x64 build mode which forces the compiler to compile the (form) classes in 64bit mode. Now the 32bit designer needs to load a 64bit assembly which fails and results in this error. Simply switch to x86 build mode and everything will work.

i believe this has something to do with the latest visual studio (2017 community) not displaying the forms properly. I think @KN4CK3R uses an older IDE, i would wait for his response tho
