Support for Windows services?
- Support for Windows Services is an item in our backlog. The scenario will be able for enterprises and apps in the Microsoft Store for Business.
Tanaka_Jimha - and so our service takes over networking processing like a next generation vpn so it will require a lot more privileged than normal anyway so I would like info on the request process, but the documentation says I just have to state it in the submission, problem is, the submission just errors and doesn't let me submit.
Hi JeremyTellier,
There is an alternative approval request process noted on the page that you can use (without making the submission). In your case you'd need to state that you're trying to submit a package with a service:
".. you must request approval in advance rather than providing info on the Submission options page. To do so, visit the Windows Developer support page. Select Developer support topic Dashboard issue, Issue Type App submissions, and Subcategory Other. Then describe how you are using the capability and why it is necessary for your product. If you do not provide all the information necessary, your request will be denied. You may also be asked to provide more information. Note that this process typically takes 5 business days or longer, so please submit your request well in advance.
You may also use this method of requesting approval (rather than providing this info during your submission), whether or not you're using a development sandbox, if you prefer to confirm that you are approved to use a restricted capability before you start your submission."
Cheers,
Tanaka
