I am using nanoframework library in visual studio 2022, trying to manipulate the ESP-WROOM-32 device where an RFID-RC522 reader is connected. I publish the application "Hello from nanoFramework!" and its execution is successful. When I add the library nanoFramework.Iot.Device.Mfrc522 to the application and publish it on the device, an error appears saying that it is unable to load the reference assemblies.

Waiting for debug commands...
The program '[1] .NET nanoFramework application: Managed' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
`
In the research I carried out, I found some solutions that could solve this problem but I still could not succeed.
a) I updated the nanoff as below; nanoff --update --serialport COM3 --platform esp32
b) I also updated the libraries in Manage nuget package of visual studio 2022

Can anyone help regarding this problem?
This is happening because of reference inconsistencies between libraries. mscorlib was updated recently and there is an ongoing cascade update on the various libraries. You either have to wait for this to complete (it should happen between today and tomorrow) or revert to previous versions of the libraries and firmware.
