I have a Xamarin.Forms solution that contains a UWP project. Since my dev machine is Windows 8.1, I set up Remote Debug in another pc with Windows 10 installed in my same LAN. So, in Visual Studio I have to Right-Click to my UWP project and choose "Deploy" ensuring that "Remote Machine" is selected. After that I can Debug by hitting Remote Machine.
It worked, the app worked with no problem using this Remote Debug.
Since this UWP didn't have its own Assets (Logos, icons, etc) i opened the Manifest Designer to choose the images in Visual Assets section. Compiled, Deployed, and tried to remote debug again. Now the app doesn't open, and I get the following Exceptions:
AppConsume.UWP.exe' (CoreCLR: CoreCLR_UWP_Domain): Loaded 'C:\Users\Usuario\AppData\Local\DevelopmentFiles\f736c883-f105-4d30-a719-4bf328872f5eVS.Debug_x86.JOHN_SMITH\Xamarin.Forms.Platform.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.

Excepción producida: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' en mscorlib.ni.dll
I tried other solutions like deleting Package Data folder described here: Exception thrown: 'System.Exception' in mscorlib.ni.dll on UWP App Start, with no success.
Any Ideas?
UPDATE: After checked System.IO.FileNotFoundException in Breakpoint settings I'm able to get more info about the current exception.
In Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(e);
from App.xaml.cs file is throwing this exception:
Could not load file or assembly 'ClrCompression, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.
I also updated UWP package to 5.2.2
