Step 2: Convert project file to SDK style error

[DaSilvaAFS]

I am converting my app MVC from .net framework 4.5.2 to .net 5.
When running the upgrade-assistant and try to run step 2 (Convert project file to SDK style) it gives the error bellow and exit.
It seems that the assistant delete the file and then he need it!!!!!

1. [Complete] Back up project
2. [Failed] Convert project file to SDK style
3. Clean up NuGet package references
4. Update TFM
5. Update NuGet Packages
6. Add template files
   [15:04:57 INF] Saving upgrade progress file at C:\Projects\myproject\folder\myProject.webapi.upgrade-assistant
   [15:04:57 ERR] Unexpected error
   System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file ':\Projects\myproject\folder\myProject.webapi\packages.config'.

@DaSilvaAFS Is this something you are seeing in latest UA releases too? If so, could you send us the .csproj and the upgrade-assistant.clef for us to take a look?
