Creating WinAppSDK package with Azure DevOps missing localization or debug symbols

[JanRajnoha]

I tried to create app package bundle with Azure DevOps pipeline with included debug symbols, but according to Copilot creating manually bundle is not available, therefore I have to use package generated by VSBuild task. But when I use bundle from VSBuild, it missing localization and according to Copilot even resources related to localization. I tried to chat with it more and we come to conclusion, that current MS runner images in Azure DevOps do not have correct version of Visual Studio, that will correctly create package for Windows App SDK for .NET 9.

What is correct way to use VSBuild task in Azure Pipeline to create package with debug symbols and with localization? Do I have to wait for image with Visual Studio 2026?

Previously manually created bundle was correctly localization and no debug symbols
