I have an application that uses a DLL to make API calls. Is there a way to prevent my application from crashing when the DLL crashes? I tried putting a try/catch around each call, but that doesn’t work.

If the DLL is a third-party library you cannot modify you can load and execute the code in a separate AppDomain.
If it is your own code it would be best to fix the bugs first. A
NullReferenceExceptionalmost always indicates a bug in your code that should be fixed.As you are not able to catch the exceptions with a try/catch blog I would assume that the exception occurs on another thread. Either wrap the method(s) on the other thread within a try/catch block or use the AppDomain.UnhandledException event to catch it.
