Problem

After dropping MSIX support in #4, F5 fails with:

The project doesn't know how to run the profile with name 'Snipdeck.app (Package)' and command 'MsixPackage'.

VS keeps trying to start the now-broken Package profile.

Fix

The scaffold's launchSettings.json had two profiles:

  • Snipdeck.App (Package)MsixPackage — dead, removed
  • Snipdeck.App (Unpackaged)Project — kept, renamed to plain Snipdeck.App

One profile, one way to run.

After merging

In VS, the launch profile dropdown (next to the green Play button) may still show "Snipdeck.App (Package)" from your .vs/ user state. Pick Snipdeck.App from the dropdown and F5 should be clean.

Test plan

  • You: F5 from VS runs without a profile error
  • CI's Windows job still builds the App project

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The scaffold's launchSettings.json shipped two profiles:
  - "Snipdeck.App (Package)" — commandName: MsixPackage
  - "Snipdeck.App (Unpackaged)" — commandName: Project

VS keeps trying to start the Package profile and fails:

    The project doesn't know how to run the profile with name
    'Snipdeck.app (Package)' and command 'MsixPackage'.

We dropped MSIX support entirely in #4, so the Package profile is dead.
Remove it and unbracket the survivor — there's only one way to run this app
now, "Snipdeck.App" doesn't need a qualifier.
