Hi, we looked at your package and noticed the MaxVersionTested is set to value that is early version of Windows.

Change this,
<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="10.0.17701.0" MaxVersionTested="10.0.17763.0" />
to this,
<TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Desktop" MinVersion="10.0.17701.0" MaxVersionTested="10.0.18317.1" />
It works.

This also fixed the problem for me as well. But I repackaged my Modification package with the new tool on an insider machine with build 18323. But even there I had to manually change the number. It would have been great if the Packaging Tool would have done that for me.

Great feedback. We are working on an update and should have it for the April release (which will align more to the 1903 OS changes).
