Self-Contained Single-File Win Form app does not run

861 Views Asked by At

I am on VS 2019 16.8.3 with .Net 5.0.

I have created a simple Win Form project without any NuGet or project dependency. I have made sure it runs out of the IDE.

When I published the project to a self-contained single file exe, it does not run. The Task explorer briefly showed the exe and switch it to suspended before killing it. The exe works fine after I republished it either without the single-file or the self-contained option. It seems like both options cannot co-exist.

Any idea?
