    I found the solution to the problem.

    My csproj file had some strange entries for the LaunchScreen.storyboard file.

    	<ItemGroup>
    	  <InterfaceDefinition Remove="LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	  <InterfaceDefinition Remove="Resources\LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	</ItemGroup>
    	<ItemGroup>
    	  <None Remove="Resources\LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	</ItemGroup>
    

    I deleted these ItemGroups and left the standard inclusion and it worked after that.

    I found the solution to my problem.

    There were some very strange ItemGroups in the csproj file.

    	<ItemGroup>
    	  <InterfaceDefinition Remove="LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	  <InterfaceDefinition Remove="Resources\LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	</ItemGroup>
    	<ItemGroup>
    	  <None Remove="Resources\LaunchScreen.storyboard" />
    	</ItemGroup>
    

    I deleted them and tried again and it worked fine.
