Package Error with MSIX File. Created my own app. Trying to install it to MS Store. Only 1 error.
The error seems to indicate an issue with the AppXManifest.xml file that you must include at the root folder. The file has "application" elements and the error seems to say that it didn't find any. These elements define entrypoints, such as the shortcuts (called visual elements in the schema). So it sounds like a syntax error.

Timothy,
I was wondering if I should name the file Package.appxmanifest, instead of appxmanifest?
It must be AppxManifest.xml in the package. Possibly case doesn’t matter, but I’ve always seen it that way.
However, I can't speak to whatever tooling you could be using that expects you to provide a different name and changes it into the form the package requires.
