Your problem is font related, to start with.

Something to check here.

https://faithlife.codes/blog/2009/11/how_to_crash_every_wpf_application/

    "We traced this to having an illegal path char
     in one of the fonts listed in the

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts

     registry key. To reproduce the problem, you can
     simply edit one of those values on your own machine
     and add a colon, pipe, or any other illegal path
     character to one of the values. Now, any WPF application
     on your system will crash as soon as it attempts
     to display its first UI."
