 ### Error Screen

 Look for the comments left by the wizard. The comments are in the `<head>` near the Telerik assets and show the correct paths for a trial and commercial license.

 ### Extra Shared Folder
 
 You may get a `Shared` folder that contains a `TelerikLayout.razor` file at an unexpected place in the project. This can happen if a folder in the project was selected instead of the project itself when running the convert wizard.
 
 The fix is to move the `TelerikLayout.razor` file to the original `Shared` folder of your project, next to the `MainLayout.razor` file.
