presencelight: Error when attempting to run Blazor version on a Mac

When I attempt to run the Blazor version 2.0.82 on Mac OS 10.14.6, I’m encountering the following error: A fatal error was encountered. The library 'libhostpolicy.dylib' required to execute the application was not found in '/Users/xxx/2.0.82_macOS/'. Failed to run as a self-contained app.

To launch it, I’m running dotnet PresenceLight.exe - I added the .exe extension to the executable since running ‘dotnet PresenceLight’ returned the following error:

Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
Possible reasons for this include:
  * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
  * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet-PresenceLight does not exist.
  * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

In case it’s helpful, here’s the output from dotnet --info

It worked on a friends Mac, but that was months ago. Looks like I need to test 😃

Oh this is the first time I’ve tried it 😃 I tried searching online to find reports from others running it on Mac, but no luck. Perhaps I’m a trailblazer.
