Intellisense says: Indicates that the COM Threading model for an application
is single-threaded apartment
I've heard before that FolderBrowserDialog conflicts with a multithreaded
application (something like this), so it messes up if it's not single
threaded. I didn't bother to ask why before...

Make sure there is no 'MTAThread' attribute specified on your 'void Main'.
Instead use 'STAThread', which ist the default and doesn't need to be
specified, at least in VB.NET.

My problem is similar, however I have a .Net Installer Class Library, where
I need to open a folderbrowser dialog for the user to specify a directory. I
have put [STAThread] attribute around the event which creates the
FolderBrowserDialog but it still seems blank with only the description, ok
and cancel button.
I don't know what i am doing wrong!

Try something like 'Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState =
ApartmentState.STA' before using the 'FolderBrowserDialog'...

No Luck.

Try something like 'Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState =
ApartmentState.STA' before using the 'FolderBrowserDialog'...
