The type initializer for '<Module>' threw an exception.
Hello,
I am currently unit testing my solution (not much has been programmed at all) and a few days ago all my tests (1 test lol) ran perfectly fine.
Today I get this error (i also made another test project with a different testing framework, still same error):
System.TypeInitializationException : The type initializer for '<Module>' threw an exception.
---- System.TypeInitializationException : The type initializer for 'WinRT.ActivationFactory
1' threw an exception.
-------- System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException : Class not registered (0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
A friend of mine can also reproduce this error.
All we have is a xUnit test project and a MAUI project with one class (no ui implementation at all)

All we do is initialize the constructor with certain parameters
If we remove the constructor initialization from the test, the test passes
but its really just a plain old constructor initialization and as i said we didnt even change anything since the last time it worked
I see winrt, I tag @ref *&Sergio
Are you missing an activation manifest?
i dont even know what that is tbh
we didnt manipulate anything, only created a class and an according test project
on my laptop it worked, and now it also doesnt work (i didnt touch my laptop since the last time the tests were executed successful, only shut it down and booted it up)
were on windows 11, the build settings are the same for the two projects
any heads up?
still require help here
