try-convert 0.9.4.32202 crashes with: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. Could not find or load a specific file. (0x80131621)

See original GitHub issue

I just installed try-convert as a global tool (dotnet tool install -g try-convert).

I changed into the root of my git repo and ran ‘try-convert’. And i got this exception trace: d:\Repos\msazure-one\Spartan>try-convert System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a’.
