Error while updating certain Application properties while building MSIX from packmsix.exe
Hi Team, I am using makemsix version 1.7.97 for packing msix package. I am editing the application details. I am getting the error for below application properties. https://docs.microsoft.com/en...
OK. So the basic form of the XML here seems to be OK and it isn't a bad XML file so the error I pointed out from the log might be misleading.
The version of makeappx you referenced is unfamiliar to me, I normally use one from the Windows SDK or Visual Studio which mark versions as 10.9.xxx. Certainly the UAP10 schema extensions are relatively new and possibly a different makeappx version might help. It is also unclear in the documentation what versions of client side OS would be required to have those extensions. The MaxVersionTested and possibly MinVersion might need to be adjusted in the end, but that would be seen as a runtime issue and not when making the package.
For the record, I commonly package a version of that same application via repackaging with the Microsoft MSIX packaging tool, but did need to add the Package Support Framework and FileRedirectionFixup to get full features. I did not need to add command line parameters for my use (but would have used the PSF launcher for it if I did). The repackaged app seems to work very well.
You will likely need help from someone at Microsoft responsible for Packmsix.

Thanks TIMOTHY_MANGAN . I will try building the package with latest packmsix.exe tool as you suggested since uap10 are latest schema extensions.
