Change your namespace in your shell from:

xmlns:local="clr-namespace:MPC_MassPropertiesCalculator_MAUIapp"

To this:

xmlns:local="clr-namespace:MPC_MassPropertiesCalculator_MAUIapp.Views"

Basically if you wanna refer a View in your XAML you need to have its exact namespace and then the name of your View.
