Create a PSA app with WindowsAPP SDK

[nitish14s]

I am trying to create a PSA app using WindowsAPPSDK (WinUI3). I have created it as a multiinstancing app and updated the Package.AppManifest of the app

<printsupport:Extension Category="windows.printSupportSettingsUI" EntryPoint="$targetentrypoint$"/>

But when while opening from a IPP enabled printer to open this app on clicking the Printer Preferences, app is crashing with
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException

Michael Ziller (@mziller) can you assist or route?

nitish14s can you file a Feedback Hub item and use the "record" option to collect a trace of how your app is being launched? What is the callstack reported by VS of the COMException? (Feel free to anonymize your DLL names of course.)

Posted as an issue. Please follow up on #4304

Hardware Support Apps are intended for hardware vendors to be able to extend functionality of their devices. They're not a general extensibility mechanism for end users to add customizations. Printer vendors should reach out to Microsoft directly for assistance in developing PSAs

I am a developer working for a printer manufacturer. Could you please provide a contact method through which we can obtain support for PSA (Print Support App) development?
