Windows app installs on Wndows 10 but fails to install on Windows 11 as it keeps asking for .NET even after installation of .NET 8?

Description

I'm using Visual Studio 2022 Preview to create a Widows exe of a Maui app.

On two virgin Windows 10 machine it puts up a dialog asking to install .NET 8 and does so without a problem.

On two virgin Windows 11 machines it puts up the same dialog, the .NET install is run, and then when the Maui app is run again it asks "You must install or update .NET to run this application"

dotnet --info shows the exact same runtime installed on Win11 as on Win10?

I even tried installing Visual Studio but Only installing the .NET 8 runtimes. That had no effect.

Then I installed the Maui entire package in Visual Studio Preview. No change?

My girlfriend just ran the exact same packaged directory that woudn't install on Win11 but did on Win10 on her Win11 machine and it .. Ran?

But .. she's had Visual Studio 2022 Preview installed and has been developing Maui apps?

How can I get my Windows version of the app installed on Windows 11 for my Client?

BTW - I did Not have this issue with .NET 7 previously? This is new behavior with .NET 8.
