Basically the problem is XHTML document does not become part of project as its build action is set to None. You have to include it. To do follow this steps.

  1. Right click on that XHTML document & click on property.

  2. Open combo box of property "Build Action"

  3. It has default "None", change it to "Content"

  4. That's it. Test and reply back. If it works, don't forget to mark it as answer.

UPDATE 1

Load XHTML from assets

MyWebView.Source = new Uri("ms-appx-web:///Assets/test.xhtml");

Load XHTML from local folder : 

var XHTML = await Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync("test.xhtml");
MyWebView.NavigateToString(await Windows.Storage.FileIO.ReadTextAsync(XHTML));
