Hi, Ive tried multiple times to add a menustrip to my application ( default blazor application, just telling it to start with Electron.

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
        {

            
            Task.Run(async () => {
                 var options = new BrowserWindowOptions { Show = true}; 
                 Electron.Menu.SetApplicationMenu(new MenuItem[] { new MenuItem { Label = "Exit" }}); 
                 await Electron.WindowManager.CreateWindowAsync(options); 
                 });
            if (env.IsDevelopment())
            {
                app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
            }

            app.UseMvc(routes =>
            {
                routes.MapRoute(name: "default", template: "{controller}/{action}/{id?}");
            });

            app.UseBlazor<Client.Program>();

        }

Why wont my menu strip show? I am using Ubuntu Linux as my development environment and VSCode as my text editor, with the dotnet command line compiler.

Your code works on my Windows 10 - but I tested it without blazor.
Do you can test it with a non-blazor project?
