Describe the bug
I got a crash when trying to run the tool

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Example VS Solution
If possible attach a zip of a solution directory that exepriences this issue.
DependenSee only looks at csproj files, so you don't have to include your code. But if you do, make sure you Clean your solution to prevent any anti malware software from flagging the upload.

Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 413, position 67.

Looks like it failed to parse one of the project files. Is it possible to find and attach the csproj/vbproj file?

if you have a lot of them, unfortunately have to check one by one, i.e renaming it to have a different extension, then see if the crash still happens.

Alternatively, if you prefer, you can write something yourself that traverses through your folder and try to call
new XmlDocument().Load(filePath) to see which one(s) fail with the same error.

I have now run a simple program that tried to load all of our csproj files an I found some that had som busted encoding. So all you could do is to give a bette error message when parsing fails. It would be very nice to get the name of the file that could not be parsed.

Thanks for the quick reply.
