I had just installed Win2D from NuGet onto my WinUI 3 project, and it no longer compiles giving the following error :

Severity	Code	Description	Project	File	Line	Suppression State
Error	NETSDK1130	Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.winmd cannot be referenced. Referencing a Windows Metadata component directly when targeting .NET 5 or higher is not supported. For more information, see https://aka.ms/netsdk1130	WinNotes	C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\7.0.102\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.targets	1033

This is the project solution :

When I use the CsWinRT package as microsoft's official solution to 1130 says, it compiles but the programs exists with 0x80008089. I surely am missing something.

Try updating your TargetFramework to 22621, that should do the trick. I think you won't need to use the CsWinRT package.
You can leave the TargetPlatformMinVersion as is, that should still work fine.

Edit: Just for clarity, it should look like this:
<TargetFramework>net6.0-windows10.0.22621.0</TargetFramework>

@getrou

thanks, but now I get :

Severity	Code	Description	Project	File	Line	Suppression State
Error	NETSDK1148	A referenced assembly was compiled using a newer version of Microsoft.Windows.SDK.NET.dll. Please update to a newer .NET SDK in order to reference this assembly.	WinNotes	C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\7.0.102\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.Windows.targets	55

I installed .NET SDK 8.0 and placed a global.json inside my solution specifying it but to no avail

That's strange, the rest of your project file looks good to me, and Win2D was compiled using .NET 6.0.

Two questions:

  1. Are you building in VS? If so, I've seen an occasional bug where VS needs to be restarted to correctly pick up the new SDK / .NET version.
  2. Is this a packaged project or unpackaged project?

  1. Yes I am using VS 2022, i will try upgrading it
  2. its a packaged project

So I upgraded VS to 17.8.2 and now its compiling with Win2D included.
