Microsoft.NET.Sdk\Sdk\Sdk.NuGet.targets is not found

Hello, local bulid is ok, but I can't build project in Azure Pipelines:

Error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\dotnet\sdk\3.0.103\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\Sdk\Sdk.NuGet.targets" was not found. Confirm that the expression in the Import declaration "C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\dotnet\sdk\3.0.103\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\Sdk\Sdk.NuGet.targets" is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

Create App Packages->Configure update settings->"Installer Location" ?????

Don't know if this the correct place to post this. I'm on

windows 10 HOME
Version 1903
OS build 18632.778

Using Visual Studio Pro 2019
Version 4.8.03752

From screenshot above the Create button is desensitized because I have to enter an Installer Location???? Where is this field documented? What does it mean? Why can I not create the pkg without specifying a location? And WHY isn't there a context sensitive help link describing a required field? This is my first UWP pkg and it's been a frustrating experience.

This app is going to be desktop specific. I thought all pkgs got installed in c:\Program Files????

Resources missing

Choosing a certificate in Visual Studio with the MSIX app manifest

I'm following along in the video, but I'm having trouble seeing an option in Visual Studio that the presenter in the video uses at the 28:00 mark in the video. I'm using Visual Studio Enterprise 2019 version 16.1.1 with .NET Framework 4.7.03190. My problem is when I open the appxmanifest display > click the Packaging tab > click Choose Certificate > Select a Certificate > I do not see the More choices selection option as seen in the video. I've been looking through documentation but cannot see how to enable this option. I'd like to be able to select a self-signed certificate. Please advise.

ngbv always assigning version 0.0.0

I have a clone of this in my project. I believe that it used to correctly carry through the major and minor numbers from my package. Now, it seems that ngbv always assign version 0.0.0.

Was there an underlying change in the ngbv tool or the build system that would cause this? I don't think I've changed any of the build scripts for a couple months.

Creating packages with custom .appinstaller file, the settings do not take effect

I've setup a Winforms project with .NET Framework 4.7.2 and using Visual Studio 16.1.2. I've also got a CI build setup the same as you did here. When I deploy locally through Visual Studio or when I generate package artifacts through the CI build, it does not use the custom .appinstaller template file that I added to the project which includes the 2018 schema, ShowPrompt="true", and UpdateBlocksActivation="true". It's generating a new .appinstaller file with the older schema without the custom settings. Is there some configuration to tell it to use the .appinstaller provided? Or is this another preview feature?
