MSIX not visible in Apps & Features ?
Indeed I installed th MPT tool from the store a few days ago !
I retried with my VPN disconnected but same issue.
I tried to run troubleshooter from Windows Store Apps but no success either.

Hi Bogdan
After so many trials the following process worked for me (and according to post https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/pur-inventoryneveraugmented/c9661417-b144-4fd0-a1a0-2dea60d39ea2 )
- Reset the Microsoft store
Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > select Microsoft Store > Advance options > Reset
- Sign in to Microsoft Store, but first go through your own LDAP credentials. Really strange... (I'm not sure to redo it properly)
- Then downloading the package from uSoft store was good at last !
Notice I didn't use any VPN

Hi JF_BAUDE
As Bogdan said, if your package does not have an entry point, it will not show up in the Apps & Features page.
For the MSIX Packaging Tool to create an entry point for your application, you need to include an executable and a shortcut to it, or mark the installed executable as an entry point from the "First launch tasks" page using the Browse button.
Since you are creating the MSIs yourself, maybe you could create the MSIX package directly instead of creating the MSI and then converting it to MSIX. You can do this using a Windows Application Packaging Project in Visual Studio. The MSIX Packaging Tool is meant for cases when you do not have access to the source of the application and thus cannot build the package directly.
