Creating new project in visual studio - Excel Web Add-in - Trying to starting project = The program 'excel.exe' has exited with code -1 (0xffffffff)

Yesterday this loaded

I have followed the instructions here:

I downloaded and installed visual studio with all the required addins.

When I press F5 to start it did work and loaded in excel yesterday.

Today it won't load

On restarting my machine today, it won't work I have followed the guidelines here on debugging too: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/develop/debug-office-add-ins-in-visual-studio

I have run the following again to ensure in case it needed resetting after reloading visual studio.

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Win32WebViewHost

Set debug

setx JS_DEBUG Microsoft.Win32WebViewHost_10.0.18362.449_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy

It still does not work. I get dialog error with following:

One or more errors occured.

the operation was cancelled.

In output window

The program 'excel.exe' has exited with code -1 (0xffffffff).
