I am currently having an issue with Visual Studio, which does not let me open or create any winui 3 projects. Opening a winui 3 project will result in this error:
The SDK 'Microsoft.NET.Sdk' specified could not be found.
Attempting to create a winui 3 project will result in:
Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown.
Do note that the repository originated from a different computer and has never switched the .Net SDK version.
What I've tried so far:
- Reinstalling & repairing Visual Studio
- Reinstalling the .Net 6 SDK
What my .csproj file looks like:
