Do you run the project via VS for Mac? From the screenshot, the error is thrown in obj folder, you could try to clean bin/obj folder.

In addition, could you edit the post with text? Image is hard to read.

below are screenshots and details please review and provide some solution

Ensure that restore has run and that vou have included 'net 70-maccatalvst' in the TargetFrameworks for your project. You may also need to include 'maccatalyst-×64' in your Project's RuntimeIdentifier

for macOs, Maui only supports catalyst application (iPad app built to be hosted on macOs).

the Maui app will run in a sandbox, and have restricted access to the file system. the sandbox folder structure will have links to ~/downloads and ~/pictures, but not access by default be sure to enable managed file access.

Also enable access to the USB device. You can use IOUSBHost framework to access the USB..
