Packaging USB drivers as MSIX
Hi,
it might be a bit late, but I have found a workaround for that.
I am bringing an app to the store that has a few drivers inside of its package.
There is a Cli.exe in the package that installs the drivers that are shipped with it.
You can make a button or promt to install the Store Driver Catalog app, then you can use a command to make the cli install the packages you need.
This should make your app safe and you dont need allowElevation for your package.
