Error makepri.exe failed, exit code = -2146958844

When I convert MSI to MSIX, I received error on makepri.exe. The same error occur both command line and UI. Anyone experience this error? Any suggestion to solve this error?

Thank you Cory for your review. I've attached manifest file for your review. 
I will also take a look that ID associated COM class.
Regards,

Dooyoul.

Hi Cory,

I've reviewed associated COM component again but nothing unusual.  I've also noticed that the same error happen other MSI too.  Is there any chance you have looking into Schema definition ?
Any update is appreciated.
Thanks,

Dooyoul.

    Hi Dooyoul,

     

    I am looking into the issue you reported.  

    No updates yet, but I will let you know as soon as we have a resolution for you.

     

    In the meantime, you may have some luck if you manually limit the number of entry points added on the 'First Launch tasks' wizard page to one.

     

    Thanks!

    James

      Hi James,

       

      Thanks for the update. I had the same idea and tried out with only one entry point on the 'First Launch tasks' from wizard page but received the same error.

       

      Thanks,

      Dooyoul.

        Hi Dooyoul,

         

        Apologies for the slow response.  We identified the issue you ran into and will be fixing it as soon as time allows.

         

        Given that you ran into additional problems even when you tried limiting the entry points to one, I'm concerned your particular application might be running into additional problems. 

        If it would be possible to share the installer in question with us, we can be more certain we have identified all the issues at play. From the manifest it looks like you were testing with Autodesk Inventor?  If I try the version available from the Autodesk website would that give me a good repro of the issue?

         

        Thanks!
        James
