I just updated my visual studio so I could create a new project in .net 8, but now I’m getting the following error in my existing boilerplate 8.1.0 project:
‘Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ApiExplorer.IApiDescriptionProvider_26c5b40a-354d-4734-90cd-1b6d59e8e3d1’ is waiting for the following dependencies:
- Service ‘Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.IServiceProviderIsService’ which was not registered.
No changes were made to the project and it ran with no issue prior to updating visual studio
- Delete .vs folder
- Clean and rebuild solution

I found myself in the same situation as you and the only solution I found was to rollback the VS version from 17.9.0 to 17.8.6 (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/introducing-visual-studio-rollback/)
Downgrading VS from 17.9.X to 17.8.X worked for me as well.
