Hi Jenifer Rajendren

I just re-tested the samples I had for my Ignite 2018 demo on modification packages and I don't reproduce your behavior. When I uninstall the modification package the main does not find my config file anymore. What Win 10 version are you using?

Here you can find my sample packages if you want to test them.

Also, I assume you correctly uninstall the modification package, from Settings app? And restarted your app from start menu?

Hi Bogdan Mitrache ,

Thanks for the response.I too have a sample where file customization works.The non-working scenario is specific with PSF applied sample application:
Sample can be found at:https://github.com/microsoft/MSIX-PackageSupportFramework/tree/master/samples/PSFSample/PSFSampleApp
I had applied file redirection fixup in which intentionally i dint add "Config.txt".On applying modification package it is able to find Config.txt if i remove modification package(Yes,i had uninstalled it from App add-ons & downloadable content only.That is the primary way to uninstall i guess) the sample application was still able to find Config.txt though it isn't there in the current directory mentioned in config.json.

Thanks,
Jenifer
