Issue loading "hostpolicy.dll" in version 5.2.0 #9

I've been having trouble trying to get the latest version to run, and I'm not sure where else to ask for help. When I run it in the command prompt, I get this error:

Failed to load the dll from [C:\Program Files (x86)\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\5.0.17\hostpolicy.dll], HRESULT: 0x800700C1
An error occurred while loading required library hostpolicy.dll from [C:\Program Files (x86)\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\5.0.17]

From a little bit of research, it appears that 0x800700C1 means ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT, which usually gets thrown when an x86 program tries to run x64 or vice versa. I've tried reinstalling .NET Core multiple times, but I'm still getting the same issue. Any help would be appreciated!
