The application fails to launch – the splash screen appears but then the application fails to launch.

Resolved.
According to this blog, we are supposed to write package.appxmanifest in this form:

<Extensions>
	<uap5:Extension
	Category="windows.startupTask"
	Executable="SingleInstancedError.exe"
	EntryPoint="SingleInstancedError.App">
		<uap5:StartupTask
		TaskId="SingleInstancedErrorId"
		Enabled="false"
		DisplayName="SingleInstancedError startup" />
	</uap5:Extension>
</Extensions>

However, to make it work for Windows App SDK, these two lines must be removed:

Executable="SingleInstancedError.exe"
EntryPoint="SingleInstancedError.App"

So that the manifest looks like this:

<Extensions>
	<uap5:Extension
	Category="windows.startupTask">
		<uap5:StartupTask
		TaskId="SingleInstancedErrorId"
		Enabled="false"
		DisplayName="SingleInstancedError startup" />
	</uap5:Extension>
</Extensions>
