Is there any way to include services in MSIX package for Windows 10 1909(OS Build 18363.1556) ?

[shreedhar_ghare]

Hello Team,

We have started implementing the MSIX solutions in our environment. But we do have  Windows 10 1909(OS Build 18363.1556)  build installed in our environment.  Is there any workaround to include App services in the MSIX package to get this worked on the mentioned build? We know the as per MSIX documentation App services are supported from Windows 2004 build onwards.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/msix/supported-platforms

Applications:

Zoom 5.7.804 --->  CptService.exe “Zoom Sharing Service”

IBM BigFix --> BES Client services

Microsoft MDOP MBAM--> BitLocker Management Client Service

Let us know if you need more information on this.

Hi, thanks for posting the question. As the documented as stated we only support Windows 10 2004 or later.

We have updated OS build but still getting the below error,

PS C:\test> add-apppackage -path "C:\test\Zoom5.7.804_1.0.3.0_x64__fwtmgmhf0bsea.msix"
add-apppackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.
