WinUI 3 application crashes at App.g.i.cs

I am trying to create a WinUI 3 Application in C# and my application keeps crashing at App.g.i.cs

#if DEBUG && !DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_BREAK_ON_UNHANDLED_EXCEPTION
            UnhandledException += (sender, e) =>
            {
                if (global::System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached) global::System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break();
            };
#endif

Also in the Debug Console, there is an error which I'm not sure what it means Exception thrown: 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' in WinRT.Runtime.dll WinRT information: The application called an interface that was marshalled for a different thread.

Here are the MainWindow.xaml and MainWindow.xaml.cs files

<Window
    x:Class="UTD.WindowsGUI.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

namespace UTD.WindowsGUI
{
    /// <summary>
    /// An empty window that can be used on its own or navigated to within a Frame.
    /// </summary>
    public sealed partial class MainWindow : Window
    {
        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
    }
}

I have done tons of research and all have left me to a dead end. Any help will be appreciated!

    Ok, I have figured out the issue.

    Sometimes when I have cleaned a solution, the simple usings that were pre-generated were missing before I rebuilt it. This included Microsoft.UI. Being the person I am I went ahead and installed the Microsoft.UI.Xaml NuGet package. After installing this on the working solution, the code broke at the same spot. I have no idea why but at least I have fixed it.

    Thanks for all your help Roy! :)
