I could solve my problem by editing the csproj file

moved the line

<Import Project="$(MSBuildBinPath)\Microsoft.CSharp.targets" />

which where before the first

<ItemGroup>

to the end of the file.

After this the .editorconfig where applied corectly.

Unfortunately I have no idea why this had the desired effect but since it tock much time to fine out I hope it help some one. And maybe some one knows the reason for this.

===================================================

I Reproduced the behaviour in a new project using VisualStudio 2022

  • Create a Empty Solution

  • Add a new Class Library (.NET Framework)

  • Add a .editorconfig file with some rules (e.g. Naming)

  • (Test) => error is shown (in my case IDE1006)

  • Unload the new Project and edit the csproj by moving the line

    <Import Project="$(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.CSharp.targets" /> up before the first <ItemGroup>

  • Reload now the .editorconfig is ignored (IDE1006 disappeared)

I do not understand why the order where changed in the old Project but at least this is how it can be reproduced.
