Description

We have created a .NET5 preview7 application where we utilize Performance counters.

On a development machine this works well, but on SurfaceProX the application crashes.

Looking into the PerformanceCounter code in the netcoreapp2.0 folder inside the nuget, it seems to be reliant on registry keys for .NET Framework to be installed in order to load the native dll perfcounter.dll from a directory specified by that those keys.

We expected three things:

1. No reliance on .NET Framework
2. No reliance on Windows registry
3. Performance counters to work on SurfaceProX.

Is this a bug or a limitation to how far you want to support System.Diagnostics.

This has apparently been a problem before: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/310772/module-not-found-exception-when-calling-countersam.html?childToView=394219#comment-394219
