Creation of Thumbnail with Aspose.Slides for .NET Throws an Exception

Aspose.Slides Product Family

Hello,

our customer tries to calculate the thumbnail to a presentation and it fails with an exception.

This is the code we are using:

LoadOptions loadOptions = new LoadOptions
{
    BlobManagementOptions =
    {
        IsTemporaryFilesAllowed = true,
        PresentationLockingBehavior = PresentationLockingBehavior.KeepLocked,
        MaxBlobsBytesInMemory = 52428800,
        TempFilesRootPath = targetFolder
    }
};
using (IPresentation presentation = PresentationFactory.Instance.ReadPresentation(sourceFile, loadOptions))
{
    return presentation.Slides[0].GetThumbnail(1f, 1f);
}

I can reproduce it on windows 11 using .NET 6.0 and aspose.slides.NET 24.4.

The used presentation is attached to this post.

presentation.zip (68.5 KB)

with best regards,

André Necker
