.NET not seen by Dyalog ]LINK

[kennedyce]

This may be a Microsoft issue, but I've downloaded and installed .NET from Microsoft for X64 to macOS 12.6.2 Monterey. Installed without errors, but dotnet command didn't work in terminal. Seems to be an installer bug that was fixed by making a symbolic link: sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet /usr/local/bin/
I then checked to see what dotnet had to say.

I started Dyalog 18.2 and tried ]LINK.Create:

What am I missing here?

Update:
I checked DYALOG_NETCORE in my dyalog.182U64.dcfg and it was set to 0.
Changed it to 1:
]Config
APLK0 default
APL_LANGUAGE_BAR_FILE /Applications/Dyalog-18.2.app/Contents/Resources/Dyalog/languagebar.json
AUTOCOMPLETE_PREFIXSIZE 0
AUTO_PW 1
CLASSICMODE 1
COMMAND_MODE unix2003
DYALOG /Applications/Dyalog-18.2.app/Contents/Resources/Dyalog
DYALOG_CONFIGDIR /Users/CEK1/.dyalog
DYALOG_NETCORE 1
DYALOG_SERIAL 500466
...

Still no joy. :-(

BTW, Dyalog for macOS Installation and Configuration Guide Dyalog version 18.2 says "DEFAULT = 1"

Dyalog 18.2 currently supports .NET core 3.1 which unfortunately went out of (Microsoft) support last month.

See this post for suggestion on using later version of .NET while waiting for official Dyalog support:
