Same thing is broken here since .NET8 upgrade for our project. You really need to compile/deploy from VS Mac.

Then on the Mac run/deploy it to same simulator & you will be able to control it and use it from Windows - you can even debug it from VS Mac if you want but that's a pretty crappy IDE. |

Found out that in old projects (before .NET 8) there is global.json file with mentioned framework version. Change version or, better, delete it completely and it will begin deploying fine. |

just updated a Maui.iOS (formerly Xamarin iOS Native) app from .NET 6 to .NET 8. Had the same issue, applied your fix and simulator started right up. Thank you! |
