Multi app Kiosk WIndows 11 not showing packaged apps

Hi there,

 

i was creating an multi-app kiosk in W11 and used this XML File down below. The problem is that i can see in the pinned list Notepad, but i can't see Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader is a required app and is installed on the machine and it is an allowed app. This Adobe was packaged by one of our packagers. Am i missing something? I used the AMUID of Adobe in the allowed section.

    Ensure the application configured for Kiosk Mode is properly packaged, and deploy it via the AssignedAccess PowerShell module.
