System.NotSupportedException: 'Unable to find Invoker for type 'Microsoft.Maui.MauiApplication'. Was it linked away?' MAUI

After updating .NET MAUI project from .NET 8 to .NET 9, when I try to build and deploy Android app in Emulator, build process shows "Deployed" and then as soon as splash screen appears, I get this error

System.NotSupportedException: Unable to find Invoker for type 'Microsoft.Maui.MauiApplication'. Was it linked away?

Here is a screenshot of the error:

This is what I have tried until now, but no luck

1. Clean project and then re-build

2. Delete obj/bin project and then re-build

3. Updated Nuget packages

4. Checked that I have properly installed .NET 9 SDK, Android Emulator with api 35

5. Updated AndroidManifest.xml

   <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="35" android:targetSdkVersion="35" />
   

How to resolve this error?

In my case, enabling Fast Deployment fixed this error.
