Moreover, as a developer must carefully consider everything that normally comes with the MSIX package and ensure they're available in the target environment. Publishing self-contained just means the .NET runtime, it doesn't mean it will automatically check to see if fonts are installed or other things. When unpackaged, we are responsible for making sure all resources, like custom fonts, must be in the operating system environment when that unpackaged app is run. If you are not sure what those things are, you can change ".msix" to ".zip" and extract it to see the contents.
Can you also fix these problems?

The story with MSIX is that all the requirements and dependencies should be installed with the app.

If you create a plain WinUI app, does it also have issues?

Also, the publish with /p:PublishSingleFile=true might be an issue as this is not relevant.

And, /p:GenerateAppxPackageOnBuild=true should not be needed when publishing.

Is there a difference when you use dotnet publish -f net6.0-windows10.0.19041.0 -c Release /p:AppxPackageSigningEnabled=true /p:PackageCertificateThumbprint="c01ba45666762f3615cf6813aeb4dc4b1919541d"

You may have to install a separate app to install them...

You can use powershell to install MSIX packages

powershell -c Add-AppxPackage AutomationClient.MAUI_1.0.0.0_x64.msix

If something goes wrong it displays error info and pointers to find more details about the failure
