MSIX app attach issues
Hi Trebke
I work on the Advanced Installer team.
Can you share with us some of the packages that are giving you problems? We tested a few apps and everything worked ok.
As I said in my reply on the Advanced Installer official forums, AiStub should not require using the PsfTooling since AiStub.exe provided its own support for integrating with the package support framework.
Regarding the organization of the package files inside or outside of the VFS folder. By default, new packages generated by Advanced Installer usually place the files outside the VFS, in the package root.
If you want the files to be placed in the VFS folder, make sure the files/folders are under the "Application Folder" in Files and Folders page and the default value for Application Folder in "Install Parameters" page is set. When this path is empty the files from Application Folder go the package root.
Please note that the options in Install Paramters page are per-build. So if you have multiple builds, make sure your MSIX build is selected from toolbar before you check the settings.
Regards,
Bogdan
Hi, we also notice some strange behavior with out MSIX packages which where modified with PsfTooling (PsfLauncher exe). We have simple MSIX package which are working fine, but the ones which use PSF seems not to work. We do get an Explorer window instead of the application startup using App Attach. Locall installed all works like a charm.
Could PSF caused this issue?
Trebke Do you have an update on this issue?
