I'm having a hard time reproducing this behavior:

Can you please provide a screenshot of the application with the error when you attempt to run your script?

So its a form load from a button. I doubled the $languages because sometimes it just wouldnt load them, this has it check to see if its there, and just do it again. (not ideal). This module is brand new as of a month ago so I just assumed PS Studio was having integration issues with it.

$form1_Load={
#TODO: Initialize Form Controls here
$richtextbox1.AppendText("Currently Installed Language Packs")

$languages = Get-InstalledLanguage

if ($languages -eq $null)
{ $languages = Get-InstalledLanguage}

foreach ($l in $languages)
{
$richtextbox1.AppendText("`n$($l.languageid)")
}
$progressbaroverlay1.Visible = $false
}

The issue appears to only happen when using the LanguagePackManagement module with a GUI or WinForm. I've tested this in Visual Studio Code and ISE, but it results in the same error. Basic scripts appear to run fine. My guess is that this module has conflict with a GUI's thread.

While this may change in a update to the module, it might be a good idea to report this to Microsoft.
