Describe the bug

I have a simple C# console app for .Net 6, installing Win app SDK 1.6 and then build is failing with the error message:

This version of the Windows App SDK requires Microsoft.Windows.SDK.NET.Ref  or later.
    Please update to .NET SDK 6.0.134, 6.0.426, 8.0.109, 8.0.305 or 8.0.402 (or later).
    Or add a temporary Microsoft.Windows.SDK.NET.Ref reference which can be added with:
        <PropertyGroup>
            <WindowsSdkPackageVersion></WindowsSdkPackageVersion>
        </PropertyGroup>
    Issue2338-4 F:\packages\NuGet\cache\microsoft.windowsappsdk\1.6.240923002\buildTransitive\Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.targets   76

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Create a simple C# console app for .NET 6
  2. Install Win app SDK 1.6 through .nuget package
  3. Build the project

Expected behavior

No build error.

Packaging type

Unpackaged

Windows version

Windows 11 version 22H2 (22621, 2022 Update)

Additional context

The message is not actionable, I already installed .NET SDK 6.0.427, which is greater than .NET SDK 6.0.426 mentioned in the error message. NOTE: in the .NET download page https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/6.0, there's no .NET SDK 6.0.426.

dotnet --list-sdks 6.0.427 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk] 8.0.403 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]

NOTE: Workaround exists. I need to manually update the csproj to the following to make it work. <TargetFramework>net6.0-windows10.0.19041.0</TargetFramework>

Looks like we will need a check for when someone is not targeting the Windows OS version target framework which I assume was the case here.
