MAUI Dependency error

Question

Hi, I'm trying to create a new project in MAUI but I get dependency errors. I have VS Community installed and updated with all C# content. I have two PCs and did the same installation in both, but in one of them does not work. I have tried uninstalling, but still does not work.

This is what I have installed.

Dependency error.

Hello,​

Based on your screenshot, your project lack of net6.0-android , net6.0-ios, net6.0-maccatalyst dependencies.

Firstly, please open your VS installer, choose the VS 2022 Preview, click Modify, install the .NET Multi-platform App UI development workload like following document.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/get-started/first-app?pivots=devices-android#get-started-with-visual-studio-2022-173-preview

It is recommended to install it from VS installer. However, if you want to install it with command line. Please close your VS. Delete all of files from C:\Program Files\dotnet\metadata\workloads. Then Run dotnet workload install maui in command line.

Best Regards,
