The publish is being done via docker.

DockerFile

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/sdk:3.1-nanoserver-1809 AS build

// restore
...

// build
..

// publish
RUN dotnet publish --no-build -c Release /p:PublishSingleFile=true -r win-x64 --self-contained true -o C:/dist

.csproj

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.WindowsDesktop">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>WinExe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
    <UseWPF>true</UseWPF>
    <ApplicationIcon>Common\Images\favicon.ico</ApplicationIcon>
    <StartupObject>Dtail.Platform.Launcher.App.App</StartupObject>
  </PropertyGroup>

   ...

</Project>

Expected behavior:

Since the OutputType is set to WinExe, it should hide the console host (source)

Actual behavior:

The application is opening along with a console window

Some dependencies force the console window open, e.g. Selenium. Check whether your dependencies have their own methods for hiding the window.
