Johan Nilsson We also offer a Quick Create VM in Hyper-V. It provides a eval version of Windows 10 1809 and the MSIX Packaging Tool preinstalled.

John.
jvintzel Yep, thats the way I do it now, pretty cool but quite a few steps to set it up every time. Doesnt look like we cant save snapshots of the QC VM.
Johan Nilsson There is no limitation of checkpoints when using a quick create VM.
Johan Nilsson If you go with the Quick Create you'll want to be sure to tune up that OS before taking the snapshot. Out of the box it is quite noisy for package capture.
