Research direction
Start at Modules/Main.lua:820, where the invalidPath upvalue is indexed, and trace how opening a fresh installation reaches GetProperty through Classes/LabelControl.lua and the popup drawing path. Reproduce on Windows 11 under the reported Parallels setup; done means a freshly downloaded POB2 opens without the hard crash.
