So just to be clear; you are running the Windows app through Visual Studio, right? You click the run button and it shows you this?

What version of Visual Studio are you using? And what does dotnet --version tell you?

I tried running it from the startmenu, directly from the debug (and release) folder and from vs itself.
Using vs 2022 Community version 17.3.0 on dotnet 6.0.400

Is there a shortcut to the app in your Start Menu? If so, right-click it and select 🗑 Delete.
Have you tried VS Menu > Build > Clean Solution ?

I have the same issue. I'm able to create a solution with a single MAUI project that is capable of running. As soon as I create the project in another solution, or import it into a solution, or even, create a blank project with Visual Studio and rebuild the solution tree and create the new MAUI application into it, the problem pops up.

I've tried to find anything different between the two code environments, but was unable to figure out what is causing the issue. Maybe someone here would have an idea, let me know if I can provide data for investigating the problem.

Hi @MindMeltMax. We have added the "s/try-latest-version" label to this issue, which indicates that we'd like you to try and reproduce this issue on the latest available public version. This can happen because we think that this issue was fixed in a version that has just been released, or the information provided by you indicates that you might be working with an older version.

You can install the latest version by installing the latest Visual Studio (Preview) with the .NET MAUI workload installed. If the issue still persists, please let us know with any additional details and ideally a reproduction project provided through a GitHub repository.
