Research direction

Reproduce the regression from a clean Windows 11 machine using the Aspire 13.5 CLI, `dotnet new aspire-starter`, and `dotnet watch` from `aspire01/aspire01.AppHost`. Start by reading the attached `dotnetwatch.txt` error log and compare the behavior with Aspire 13.4.6; done means the project opens automatically in the browser again.
