What I have tried:

C#

Form dummyForm = new Form() { ShowInTaskbar = true, ShowIcon = true, WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized, TopMost = true };

FolderBrowserDialog folderBrowserDialog = new FolderBrowserDialog()
DialogResult.OK == folderBrowserDialog.ShowDialog(dummyForm)

That's because FolderBrowserDialog is not part of your program, but a Windows function.
You might use the custom dialogs from here: Ookii.Dialogs - Ookii.org[^]
Otherwise you could write your own version of FolderBrowserDialog :)
