Xamarin IOS build fails when adding Firebase project (UnpackFrameworks Task Failed) - firebase

Question

Working on my project and when I add Xamarin.Firebase.Messaging (or other firebase projects), I get the following error below when trying to build IOS only.
I tried deleting files in obj/bin, cleaning solution, rebuilding, restarting computer, going to regedit to enable longpaths, but nothing works. It seems like during the build, HotRestart unzips the framework file, then may try again and it wont overwrite and fails. When I uninstall the Firebase projects everything works perfectly. Been going crazy trying to figure this out!
Using Visual Studio 2022 trying to run on real device IphoneX.

The answer is in the below link.

Another workaround is to edit Xamarin.iOS.HotRestart.targets file:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\MSBuild\Xamarin\iOS\Xamarin.iOS.HotRestart.targets
Path depends on your VS version.
Search UnpackFrameworks node and add ContinueOnError="true". Like this:
<UnpackFrameworks ContinueOnError="true"
ReferencedAssemblies="#(AssembliesWithFrameworks)"
IntermediateOutputPath="$(DeviceSpecificIntermediateOutputPath)">
<Output TaskParameter="Frameworks" ItemName="_UnpackedFramework" />
</UnpackFrameworks>
