    Hello @Ocean,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Maybe it's caused by framework mismatch. For example, the control is based on .NET Framework(like .NET Framework 4.7.2), but the project you are going to drag and use this control is based on .NET(.NET 8). .NET Framework is different from .NET, so this error may occur.

    You can try to create a project, target to the same framework and test again.
