Microsoft Store App (new) - do win32 apps (auto) update like UWP apps?
Within Intune a new type of app 'Microsoft Store app (new)' can be deployed. Most apps are UWP apps but some are Win32.
Do these win32 apps update themselves in the same way as UWP apps, though Windows update/Winget?
Are these apps updated through another mechanism, if so, how?
If they are not updated, will this be a feature in the future?
I know I can update apps in a variety of ways, inclusing 'winget --upgrade' but these are manual/scripted solutions. And yes, I am aware that the win32 type is still experimental ;)
A colleague of mine also has asked the question on the winget github:
