Windows 11 version 25H2 does not suppoer .NET Framework 3.5 #293

Description

@madnan-github

I am using SeleniumBasic with Excel macros on Windows 11 version 25H2. The application requires .NET Framework 3.5 to run, but I am unable to install it on my system due to Windows update limitations.

Problem:

.NET Framework 3.5 is not installing properly on Windows 11 25H2.

The Windows Features installation gets stuck or fails.

SeleniumBasic requires .NET Framework 3.5, which is outdated.

Request:
Please update SeleniumBasic to work with the latest .NET Framework versions (4.x or newer) that are already available on Windows 11 by default. This will eliminate the need for users to manually install the older .NET Framework 3.5.

Benefits:
No extra installation steps required.
Works on all modern Windows systems.
Better compatibility with future Windows updates.

Current Workaround (Not Ideal):
Users have to manually install .NET Framework 3.5 using DISM or an offline installer.

Suggested Solution:
Recompile or update SeleniumBasic to target .NET Framework 4.0 or higher or available Windows .NET Framework version.

Thank you for maintaining this useful library!
