Other information

Debug Repro steps:
1.Open "C:\ReproAppSource\MahApps.Metro\src\MahApps.Metro.sln" with Visual Studio.
2. Build the solution.
3. Update \bin\Debug\net6.0-windows\MahApps.Metro.Demo.runtimeconfig.json to run against with dotnet-sdk-9.0.100-preview.7.24352.8:

"frameworks": [
      {
        "name": "Microsoft.NETCore.App",
        "version": "9.0.0-preview.7.24352.1"
      },
      {
        "name": "Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App",
        "version": "9.0.0-preview.7.24352.1"
      }
    ]

4. Select net6.0-windows option before run it in Visual Studio because this app is multiple platforms targeted.
   

5. Press F5 to start the app.

Expected Result:
App launch successful in Visual Studio.

Actual Result:
App launch failed with exception thrown in Visual Studio.

Findings:
Some apps, like repro app mentioned in the repro steps, if we replace the DynamicResource to StaticResource in xaml file, the issue will go.
And we found this issue and #9353 are all related to load resource in WPF app.

@harshit7962 Thanks for looking into the two bugs regarding WPF app launch. Could you please let us know if there are any updates? There are totally 35 apps affected in our AppCompat Lab, it may affect more users in real world. Thanks.

[harshit7962]

We have a fix ready, we are going though final stages of testing. The fix would be merged in a couple of hours.

[Junjun-zhao]

Great. Thanks @harshit7962 for your update. We will verify it when we get the build.

[harshit7962]

@Junjun-zhao we have merged the fix to this as of 19 July (Friday). The changes in PR #5610 caused these applications to fail and the fix was followed up by the change #9393.

[Junjun-zhao]

Hi @harshit7962, we have verified with build# dotnet-sdk-9.0.100-preview.7.24374.17, this issue has been fixed for the affected apps.

@Junjun-zhao - Can we close this issue?

[Junjun-zhao]

Yes, please go ahead.
