SA not accepting .Net Core service EXE. Claims 'File is not a managed .NET file'

When publishing a .NET Core 3.1 service project to a local folder, I get both an EXE as well as a dll assembly (besides all the dependency dlls). 
SA 6 is able to process the dll (and embed the dependencies) without a problem.

However, I'd like to protect the EXE as well. So when creating another SA project and browsing to the exe, an error pops with a title of 'Browse a .NET Assmbly' and text of 'File is not a managed .NET file'.

Is this a known issue?

    Looks like support for .NET Core 3.1 is available only in later versions.  Thanks.

    Netcore 3.1 support was added in 7.4, so if you are able to test using that version please do so. If you have issues after upgrading, let us know!

    Turns out the EXE is just a "loader" for the dll. So given the older SA 6 is still able to process the .Net Core 3.1 service dll, consider the issue as resolved.
