.NET Maui first Hello World for .Net 7.0
Windows target builds, but exits before I see it pop up its window. This is the output:

I think I have the same issue.
To reproduce just create a new MAUI app and try running it on net7.0-windows

Trying to run it on windows closes the app before it shows and the output says
"The program '[5868] MauiApp02.exe' has exited with code 2147942405 (0x80070005)."

Running as MacCatalyst works however.

This happens with the brand new template, as well as an app that has worked all the way since RC1.

• Cleaning the solution does not work
• Building through the CLI does not work

SDK info:
.NET 7.0.101
MAUI 7.0.52

When using the CLI to build with the verbosity flag set to "diagnostic" the process seems to fail with the following stacktrace:

This is probably a duplicate of #12080

Try this workaround which worked for me: #12080 (comment)
I hope it will be fixed soon because it is a really bad issue.

Same here... Cannot deploy on windows even in debug since VS 17.4.3 even a blank new project with hello world : it doesn't start.

Since VS 17.4.3, I can't even deploy an Android release because it says it cannot optimize build
