There is a manual step to create EnableWorkloadResolver.sentinel, did you do that part already?

With this change in place, the HelloMaui project won't work inside Visual Studio yet, but you can unload it to try HelloAndroid and HelloiOS.

I did not try attempt that part yet.

Let me give that a shot. 😊

When running the command from an admin command prompt, it did not work and said Access Denied. This was with all instances of VS shutdown.

I tried the powershell version and it ran with no issues.

I started up VS preview and opened the solution, unloaded the HelloMaui project and rebuilt the solution and I am getting the below results.

You need to use an Administrator command-prompt, or it won't be able to create the EnableWorkloadResolver.sentinel file.

Command-line builds work fine, because they aren't using MSBuild from Visual Studio.

I am pretty sure I used and admin prompt. I always have my CLI prompts run as admin. But, I will check it out again just to make sure. 🙂
