Windows will block the Xrmtoolbox application when you download it from the Internet. You will experience the .Net runtime error while using it, and sometimes the third-party plugins may not show.

To prevent this condition, right-click on the downloaded zip file, followed by clicking on Properties, then click on the bottom right button named “Unblock.” Then you can extract and use XrmToolBox. The same method is applicable for any third party plugins downloaded as zip files.

Another way out is to run the following PowerShell command:

GCI | Unblock-File

Help feature allows you to provide content-related information and help users for troubleshooting.

Feedback feature helps you to create a bug/issue in the source code repository used by XrmToolBox (Github) or the active plugin (if not from MscrmTools) on Github or CodePlex (depends on the plugin). It is how it helps you in contributing to the bugs fixes and improvements of XrmToolBox and plugins.
