I keep getting the error : CopyWin32Resources failed with exit code -1
every time I make a new XarmarinForms project and build my UWP app. At first I was just updating the Xamarin.Forms
nuget and the Microsoft.NetCore.UniversalWindowsPlatform
nuget and that was doing just fine. However, today I keep getting this error even after updating all my nuget packeges. It believe it occurs in the Microsoft.NetCore.UniversalWindowsPlatform
nuget package according the the following build logs:
1>------ Build started: Project: WindowsFluentDesignSample.UWP, Configuration: Debug x86 ------

1>C:\Users\adham\.nuget\packages\microsoft.net.uwpcoreruntimesdk\2.1.2\tools\CoreRuntime\Microsoft.Net.CoreRuntime.targets(238,5): error : CopyWin32Resources failed with exit code -1
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 1 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========
========== Deploy: 0 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped ==========
When I double click 1>C:\Users\adham\.nuget\packages\microsoft.net.uwpcoreruntimesdk\2.1.2\tools\CoreRuntime\Microsoft.Net.CoreRuntime.targets(238,5)
it takes me to Microsoft.Net.CoreRuntime.targets
where I also believe that the error is happieing in the Line 238 (Build logs) which is
<WireUpCoreRuntime
AppxManifest="@(FinalAppxManifest)"
AppxPackagePayload="@(AppxPackagePayload)"
OutputPath="$(_WireUpCoreRuntimeOutputPath.TrimEnd('\'))"
TargetRuntime="$(TargetRuntime)"
TargetArch="$(_PlatformTargetForCoreRuntime)"
FrameworkPackages="@(FrameworkPackagesForTargetArchitecture)"
CoreRuntimeSDKLocation="$(CoreRuntimeSDKLocation)"
CopyWin32ResourcesLocation="$(CopyWin32ResourcesX86Path)">
This prevents me from doing any projects so I need quick help
