In .NET Framework 4.7.2 and earlier versions, managed cryptographic provider classes such as System.Security.Cryptography.MD5 throw a System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException when the system cryptographic libraries are configured in FIPS mode.
The issue is encountered in the log viewer when needing to write content to a temporary file path e.g. when preprocessing a project node to view the full project XML.
The fix taken here to to turn off the exception throwing behavior via an app runtime switch.
Closes: #701
